The Dollar Is Still a Dollar. 

iHE whole world is blinded by 
"the beast", which has shoved 
up prices far above what might 
be termed their normal or aver- 
age level, and he makes the 
world believe that we are car- 
rying around in our pockets 
thirty-cent dollars, instead of 
the full size. How can the 
dollar be less than a dollar, so long as the 
law that created it, says that 24.8 grains of 
gold shall constitute a dollar? How can the 
yardstick be less than three feet in length, 
before there is a legal act to compel a 
change from this length? How can a pound 
be less than a pound, so long as the law of 
the country declares that so many ounces 
shall constitute a pound? It is absurd to 
declare that there are thirty-cent and fifty- 
cent dollars, so long as the law has not been 
changed to make such dollars, by so declar- 
ing them! 

The whole trouble lies in the fact that 
"the beast" has pushed prices up on the 
things he controls and can control, and so 
the dollar buys less and less of these, in 
proportion as the greed of "the beast" for 
gain has grown sharper. The blindness of 
"the beast" lies in the fact that his gain is 
his loss, for in exact ratio to his gain is the 
loss in the buying power of the general pub- 
lic, for what this public cannot buy, "the 
beast" cannot sell! In other words, "the 
beast" weakens his selling power in exact 



ratio to what the people lose in their buying 
power, and therefore their ability to con- 
sume the things "the beast" has for sale! 
And yet, the whole world is on its knees 
"worshipping the beast"! Could there be 
anything more suicidal or ridiculous? And 
wise editors of papers take a kind of special 
pride in praising "the beast" of organized 
capital, and laws are passed for his special 
protection! 

THE TORTUOUS INVENTION OF 
"THE BEAST"! 

^rHIS invention is nothing more nor less 
ilL than the so-called law of supply and 
^■^ demand. This so-called law, is nothing 
more nor less than the power or lack of it, 
to fix a price on the products of labor. The 
commercial value of a thing, gauged by the 
labor time required to produce it, is worth 
no more on account of its scarcity, than 
when existing in large quantities, for the 
simple reason that there is no addition to 
either quantity or quality, their real value 
consisting only in their use or food value, 
or power to sustain life, and this is the real 
or intrinsic value. 

The higher "the beast" shoves up the 
commercial price of a thing, the deeper gash 
he cuts in his own throat and that of the 
consuming public. His gains are both his 
own and the people's losses. The less "the 
beast" would take in toll, the longer would 
be his span of life! The unsold surplus be- 
comes a blockade to further production, for 
there is no toll in this unsold surplus. It 
must be sold, in order to get this toll out 
of it. 

The dollar has not lost any of its commer- 
cial value, for it never had any such value to 
lose. Its legitimate function is to transfer 
the ownership of a given amount of the 
products of labor from one person to an- 
other, as wagons are used to transfer the 

( 4 ) 



products themselves from one place to an- 
other. The one and only trouble with the 
dollar is that it has been overloaded by the 
toll of "the beast." The dollar can only 
transfer a dollar's worth of the products 
from one person to another, and not two or 
three dollars' worth, and just as the wagon 
of a given capacity cannot carry a load equal 
to three times its capacity. The wagon 
would break down under its load. The 
dollar is breaking down under its load. But 
it has lost none of its value, and just as 
the yardstick has lost none of its length, 
or the pound any of its weight. These all 
remain the same as before "the beast" 
showed his abnormal appetite for gain. The 
dollar has lost none of its value. Its trans- 
ferring power is written on its face! This 
has not been changed! "The beast" has 
overloaded it. That is all. 

The dollar is a measuring unit, used as a 
gauge to measure out to you so much of the 
products of labor. It has no other value. 
We could have yardsticks made of gold and 
weights made of this same metal, but this 
would not make them any more valuable 
for the purpose for which they are in- 
tended. And we could have wagons made 
of rare wood and inlaid with gold, but this 
would add no value to them for the purpose 
used. And we might write notes on gold 
plates, but this would add no value to these 
notes. They would only be worth their 
face value, no more. 

Basing money on gold, is only a trick of 
"the beast", to deceive the people. The 
dollar written on gold is no more valuable, 
than the dollar written on paper. The value 
is not in the money, but in the thing you 
get in exchange for it. The note or duebill 
is only good for the amount it calls for. The 
dollar is good only for its face value, and it 
is good for this as long as the government 
is sound. Postage stamps are good for 

( 5 ) 



their face value, and these stamps do just 
what they are designed to do. When you 
place one on a letter, the government prom- 
ises you that this letter will be sent to and 
delivered to the one to whom you ad- 
dress it. 

The only lawful function of money is to 
transfer the ownership of a thing from one 
person to another person, and just as the 
only function of a wagon is to transfer a 
thing from one place to another. For this 
purpose of transferring ownership, money 
is worth its face value, if it is worth any- 
thing, and it is always worth this, if the 
government keeps its faith with the people. 
The trick to base money on gold is but a 
trick of "the beast" to deceive the people. 
The dollar written on gold is no more valu- 
ation, than is the dollar written on paper. 
The aim of "the beast" is to blind the peo- 
ple, that he may be able to continue to hold 
his power. There is no necessity for basing 
money on gold, no more than there is for 
making yardsticks out of gold. The banker 
and "the beast" are twin brothers, and so 
the trick is for the bankers to hold the 
money, and even make the government that 
issues it, come to him and pay him interest 
on this money when there is need for it, 
for "the beast" must have his toll. 

And "the beast" keeps on piling his toll 
onto the prices of things, until finally the 
dollar becomes so helpless under its load, 
that the people lose faith in it, and then we 
will have universal bankruptcy! The wagon 
breaks down under its abnormal load. The 
dollar breaks down for the same reason and 
it becomes valueless. 

And thus does "the beast" curse the 
world; he torments it with his power of 
control over industry and prices, and he 
comes to his end through the blinding 
power of his greed! 

( 6 ) 



So long as the law is not changed, that 
recognizes the fact that three feet is a yard 
in length, and that a pound is so many 
ounces in weight, and that 24.8 grains of 
gold constitutes a dollar, just that long does 
the measuring value of these remain un- 
changed. The yard is still a yard, regard- 
less of what may be said to the contrary, 
and the pound is still a pound, while the 
dollar has precisely the same measuring 
value it always had, though it has half or 
two-thirds of its purchasing power. But its 
legal measuring power or value has remain 
unchanged. It says so on its face! 

When it is seen that the so-called law of 
supply and demand is not a law but a lie, 
invented by "the beast" to blind the world 
to the fact of his robbery, then it will be 
quite plain why we have what are so-called 
thirty-cent dollars! This tortuous inven- 
tion of "the beast", known as the so-called 
law of supply and demand, has been re- 
ceived by millions as a kind of a fixed law, 
as stable as the laws of nature, and hence 
it has been an easy matter for "the beast" 
to collect a much bigger toll in times of 
scarcity, and to make this work a double 
purpose in his favor. He flooded this coun- 
try with a surplus of labor from foreign 
countries, knowing that he could blind the 
people to the fact that labor like its prod- 
ucts, should be valued in accord with the 
time required to produce a given quantity. 
Taking advantage of the general ignorance 
of the people, he paid a very low wage 
when there was a large army of idle men 
looking for jobs, but he had the products 
of labor, which he controlled, protected by 
a high tariff wall, and so he sold most of 
his products in a protected market, and 
when he did ship goods out of the country, 
he sold them for half and in some cases less 
than half, what he made his own people pay 
for the same class of goods. 

( 7 ) 



If we overload the wagon and break it 
down, this will not destroy the fact that it 
did have, before it broke down, a definite 
carrying capacity. The world starves in the 
midst of plenty, because "the beast" has 
piled his toll so high on the products of 
labor, that the legal capacity of the dollar 
has been overloaded with this toll! So long 
as people believed that a kind of fixed law 
made it impossible to buy things cheap 
when there was a scarcity of these things, 
it was an easy matter to hold them quiet 
while "the beast" robbed them to his heart's 
content! 

But now that the dollar has almost been 
reduced to worthlessness by the greed of 
"the beast" for gain, the people turn from 
it as a thing no longer to be worshipped, 
and will now be able to see that it is only 
too true, that "the love of money is the 
root of all evil", and we are set free by this 
knowledge of the truth; for it has been 
promised that we "shall know the truth, and 
the truth shall make us free", and God keeps 
His promises. This knowledge alone can 
free the world, for God can do nothing for 
an ignorant people. We have been blind, 
and we knew it not! And this blindness 
has been as black as midnight darkness! 
And we come to know that it is the mercy 
of God that is able to save us, by revealing 
the truth to us! 

Let no man boast of his wisdom and 
power, for all have been blind lovers of 
money, and all have "worshipped the beast"! 
"The Beast" comes to his end, and none 
shall help him. So declares God, and He is 
the law, the power and the glory, forever 
and ever, Amen! 

"The beast", by his greed for gain, turns 
upon himself and consumes himself. And 
thus he comes to his timely end, and none 
shall come to help him! 

The two-horned beast that looks like a 

( 8 ) 



lamb, has his power in his two horns. One 
horn controls the channels of production. 
The other horn controls the products of 
labor. The price fixed on these products is 
the toll of "the beast", and his toll he adds 
in excess of the labor cost of production. 
This toll reduces the buying power of the 
consuming public below its consuming re- 
quirements, and is thus destructive in ef- 
fect! The unsold surplus becomes a block- 
ade, and closes up the channels of produc- 
tion. And they must remain closed until 
this surplus is worked off in some way. To 
export this surplus and bring in goods in 
exchange from foreign markets, would be as 
unsaleable as are the products already here, 
for if the people have not the buying power 
to buy the one, they have not the buying 
power to buy the other. But there are 
really no foreign markets. All the coun- 
tries of the earth, under the power and con- 
trol of "the beast", produce more than they 
have buying power to buy back! There is 
no more buying power left to the people. 
"The beast" has absorbed it all with his 
toll! 

So we come to understand that the voice 
(power) of "the beast" is like that of a 
dragon, for he threatens to destroy civiliza- 
tion by virtue of his power! But seeing 
now that he really has no power, only what 
a blind world has given him, this blind 
world turns from him and allows him to 
perish! 

The plain command to mankind was and 
is, to take no increase, and to take no in- 
terest or usury on money. But even many 
who preach the Bible and profess to believe 
it, dispute with men and declare that usury 
means excessive interest, and not a rea- 
sonable amount. But we find that the least 
that could be charged, is a clear violation 
of the command, and that it leads as straight 
to a breakdown and trouble, as does the so- 

( 9 ) 



called excessive interest, though not quite 
as swiftly, but it leads to it just as surely, 
nevertheless. Through taking interest on 
money, and which is something for nothing, 
for there is nothing given in return, a few 
men came (to own and control all the 
money in circulation. These men established 
banks, loaned out money and took in de- 
posits, on which a small rate of interest was 
allowed. This was reloaned by the banks 
to others, but for a larger rate of interest. 
The government issued all the money, but 
the bankers owned it and controlled it, and 
in case of counterfeiting, the government 
took the matter in hand, and at its own ex- 
pense it protected "the beast", by imprison- 
ing the counterfeiters and destroying their 
plates and dies, used in the work of making 
the imitation money. These men were quite 
frequently given fifteen or twenty years in 
prison, more than many are given for the 
commission of murder. The remarkable 
thing about this false money was, that as 
long as it circulated without being discov- 
ered, it was just as good as the money 
turned out by the government. It paid debts 
and did all that the other money could do, 
but the moment some one looked at it and 
recognized it, that instant it lost its power! 
The reason and only reason this money was 
not allowed to circulate, was that Mr. 
Banker was getting no toll from its use. 
And the government has gone to great ex- 
pense and trouble to see that "the beast" 
always got his toll. This government took 
much better care of "the beast" than it did 
of the people. Men would noit and did not 
take the same good care of their own 
mothers. 

And when the government needed money, 
it borrowed it from the bankers, and it paid 
them a good big rate of interest for the use 
of it, notwithstanding the fact that it is this 
same government that makes all the money! 

( 10 ) 



Instead of forbidding men to charge interest 
on the money in circulation, and which by 
rights belonged to the government, this gov- 
ernment encouraged and even helped "the 
beast" to charge interest and collect it! 

And thus the government deliberately 
broke the commands of God, and made mill- 
ions slaves to "the beast." 

From owning and controlling the money, 
it was an easy matter to gain control of the 
channels of production, shops and factories 
of all kinds, railroads and ships, in fact all 
the channels of industry where great num- 
bers are employed, and from which life is 
sustained. It is the proper function of gov- 
ernment to own and operate all productive 
channels, in which men and women are em- 
ployed, for it is from these we geit our food 
and clothes, and on which our very lives 
depend. 

Without first gaining control over the cir- 
culating medium, and which we call money, 
it would have been impossible for "the 
beast" to gain control over the channels of 
production, and over the fruits of labor, as 
(they come through these channels. The 
time required to produce a thing being the 
natural and normal gauge of its price, the 
toll "the beast" adds to this, is like a mill- 
stone around the neck; it pulls civilization 
down to ruin and death! 

The reader must understand that the labor 
time cost of production, includes cost of 
transportation and handling, for production 
is not complete before a commodity is 
brought within easy reach of the consumer. 
But <the toll added to this is a clear case of 
robbery, and for which there is no justifica- 
tion. During the excitement of the war 
just passed through, "the beast" added a 
rate of toll unheard of and undreamed of 
before, so much so, that at this time millions 
are compelled to go without things that are 
essential to life, if people are to live in any 

( 11 ) 



degree of comfort! Starvation looks out 
from darkened doors everywhere! And men 
are being jailed and shot for speaking out 
against this awful crime of "the beast" and 
his agents in Congress and other legislative 
bodies! Anarchy is upon us! Blood will 
flow like rivers! 

God must now, by direct act of His power, 
deliver us from the power of this "beast"! 
We have gone beyond the point where we 
might have been able to save ourselves, by 
turning to God., and obeying His plain 
commands! The boasters stand and look on 
in helpless and hopeless horror! 

As long as "the beast" put his toll back 
into the channels of circulation, by devel- 
oping new industries, the general public 
did not feel the weakening power of taking 
this toll. But there are no more new indus- 
tries ito develop of any consequence. "The 
beast" must now invest his money in non- 
productive channels or in old industries al- 
ready established, and non-employment will 
be the rule, and not ithe exception, if "the 
beast" be given a longer lease of life. "The 
beast" kills the goose jthat has been laying 
the golden eggs! Why was he not wise 
enough to see this long ago? 

"Servants, obey your masters". This is 
not a death sentence! It is a life message! 
Regardless of who employs us, so long as 
we accept the service, we must be faithful 
in ithe performance of it. No man can long 
loaf on the job, without becoming a loafer 
in heart and purpose. When God com- 
mands, it is our duty to listen attentively, 
for back of the command is wisdom we 
know not of, and it is dangerous to heed 
not the command, for God does not speak 
without knowing the full value of what He 
speaks. If a man is unfaithful in one serv- 
ice or in one thing he will be unfaithful in 
all service and in all things. Hence no man 
can afford to trifle with himself, no matter 

( 12 ) 



if his employer is "the beast", "for as long 
as ithis "beast" remains, this is evidence to 
us that he still serves some purpose, other- 
wise God would have removed him before 
this time, for nothing can remain anywhere 
in the Universe a single hour beyond the 
point where it serves no purpose whatever! 
When a man, woman or child reaches that 
point where there is nothing at all to be 
gained by remaining here longer, God re- 
moves them, and as one would remove for- 
eign substance from the eye. We must 
perform our service as for God Himself, for 
if what we do needs to be done, some one 
is benefitted by it, and God is served 
through us. If we come to that point where 
we render no service to any one, and in no 
other way there is no purpose in remaining 
here, we will be taken quickly! We cannot 
afford to trifle with ourselves; we must do 
what we do the best we can, for we will be 
the greater losers from mental states of in- 
difference. We cannot act trifling, without 
becoming triflers. 

The command to do our work as for God 
Himself, is a real life message to us, and is 
for the good of others who may be influ- 
enced by our states of mind and by our con- 
duct. If we reach the point where this be- 
comes wholly bad, with no redeeming fea- 
tures, God is then as sure to call us from 
this plane, as the sun is to rise tomorrow 
morning! 

But the commands above quoted have no 
reference to "the beast" and his toll, for 
this "beast" will be removed when there is 
nothing at all to be gained by his remaining 
here longer. God's power to remove an evil 
force or power from the world, after it 
reaches the point in which there is not a 
single element of service or good to be 
found by allowing it to remain longer, is 
exactly equal to His wisdom to look ahead 
and know exactly when this point will be 

( 13 ) 



reached, and the action necessary to re- 
move it. 

Had God not the wisdom to look ahead 
and see the evil thing, and the power to 
remove it, He would be defeated in His 
work, and He would be reduced ito a posi- 
tion too horrifying to contemplate ! But fear 
not; God saw the end from the beginning, 
and He is able to remove any and all ob- 
structions from the path of humanity, but 
not before He can make humanity under- 
stand the full reason for it. If no one on 
earth could now interpret the meaning of 
the [threatening danger, God would have to 
leave it here until some one could be made 
to see it and point it out to the world. In 
that case "the beast" would be given a fur- 
ther lease of life, that he might reveal his 
hoofs and horns to the people, and that they 
might come to see the necessity for his re- 
moval. He would then be taken out of the 
world. 

The people must be led to see the justice 
for an action, even on the part of God Him- 
self, otherwise nothing could be done to 
remove the evil, for to do so before the 
necessity for its removal can be seen and 
understood, would appear as an act of in- 
justice. But here we have seen that "the 
beast" claims as his own, that which God 
owns, and holds in His own right for the 
good of all. 

Seeing that "the beast" has closed many 
of the channels of production, and threatens 
to close all of them, by the blockade of an 
unsold and unsaleable surplus, because he 
knows that the public has very little buying 
power, God is forced to move against "the 
beast" and overcome him, otherwise the 
human race would starve, after a long siege 
of anarchy and terror! If "the beast" could 
point to one good reason why he should 
not have his power taken away from him, 
God would grant him a further lease of 

( H ) 



life, for the God of the Universe removes 
a thing only when there is every reason for 
such removal, and no reason at all that can 
be pointed out against the removal! And 
God fixes His time, and He knows just 
when to strike the blow! 

"The beast" and his defenders and agents, 
lose, even when tried by the rules of their 
own courts of so-called justice! The evi- 
dence against "the beast" and his agents, 
is all in, and there is not one word that can 
be said in their favor! They have violated 
every known law of justice, and they have 
shown no mercy ito any one outside their 
own numbers and class! Every act of Con- 
gress and every act of the various state 
legislatures, that is not founded upon the 
National Constitution, is a direct violation 
of this fundamental law! No act of Con- 
gres or other legislative branch of the gov- 
ernment, is a law, that in the least measure 
violates any of its plain provisions! It is 
the sworn duty of each and every member 
of Congress, as well, in every state legisla- 
ture, to uphold this fundamental law! It is 
the foundation of our government and its 
institutions! To break this law, is to tear 
away the foundation of our government! 
The whole building tumbles down, and the 
curse of God comes upon us! 

Gentlemen of the Congress, and other 
legislative bodies of the Union, you have 
not kept faith with the people! You have 
defied the voice of the people who placed 
you in power, and have made laws to suit 
yourselves and "the beast"! Having broken 
the fundamental law of the land, you have 
placed yourselves outside the pale of its 
protection! And having thus convinced the 
people that the law of might, and not of 
right, is the law you rely on, God will now 
show you that the greater part of this law 
of might still remains in the hands of the 
people! His spirits will lead them against 

( 15 ) 



all enemies of the fundamental law of the 
land! Law and order will come again, but 
not until every act against this fundamental 
law is declared unconstitutional, and this in- 
strument lifted up, and again becomes the 
fundamental law of the land, taking its 
rightful place in our government, and aU 
made ito obey it! Until this is done, an- 
archy will stalk through the land, leaving 
a trail of blood behind it! How long can 
this be endured? 

There is never any excuse for violating 
the fundamental law of the land! Least of 
all, by those whose sworn duty it is to up- 
hold it! There is no more excuse for it, 
than there is for breaking the ten command- 
ments! 

Our law-making bodies found plenty of 
time to pass laws for the protection of the 
"two-horned beast", but had no time to 
make laws for the protection of men, 
women and children in their two-fold pur- 
pose here! This purpose is development of 
boith mind and body, that all may come 
finally to a knowledge of the truth, that all 
may share the glory of God with Him in the 
after life, where all who can reach that high 
plane, pass to a glory indescribable! 

You "worshipped [the beast"! You denied 
God! 

The fundamental law of the land is first 
violated by an act forbidding the coal 
miners and other bodies of laboring men, 
from quitting involuntary servitude; fol- 
lowed immediately by a second act, order- 
ing ithese men back into involuntary servi- 
tude! And thus has the Constitution been 
cast down and trampled in the mud! 

But not content with breaking the funda- 
mental law of the land, by two unconstitu- 
tional acts, this same court comes back with 
a third, by which it ties up the funds of these 
men in the banks, in an effort to starve them 
into submission to its unlawful authority! 

( 16 ) 



No crime in the annals of time, surpasses 
this crime! 

The labor cost of production, based as it 
is on the labor time required to produce a 
commodity, should be the only gauge to its 
price. But to this natural and normal price, 
"the beast" adds his toll, and it is this toll 
that is the cause of all the misery in the 
world today! 

If rats and mice destroy a part of the 
products of labor, more can be produced ito 
make up for this loss. Or if a part be de- 
stroyed or stolen, the effect remains the 
same. But the toll of "the beast" is en 
tirely unlike this in its effects on the prod- 
ucts of labor, for this toll reduces the buy- 
ing power of the consuming public below 
its consuming requirements! 

And "sound business principles" forbids 
"the beast" removing the blockade from the 
channels of production, to still add more to 
an unsold and unsaleable surplus! 

People, can you ask me to try to make 
this any plainer? Do you not now see 
where all our trouble lies? You can thank 
God, that He has thus come to our rescue, 
by sending this light into the world, that 
we may "move against the beast and over- 
come him", before he starves the world to 
death! For God's sake and for the sake of 
your wives and children, wake up and save 
yourselves! The time for action is here! 
Your duty waits upon you! 

"You must go forth and grapple with the 
beast and overcome him"! "To cope with 
devils, you must meet them with the tools of 
devils"! Prayers to wicked men, makes 
them more angry! It would be worse than 
foolishness to pray to a mad bull! It would 
be safer to run from him, or have a weapon 
that you could overcome him with! 

So long as labor produces as much in a 
given time as it ever did, and so long as the 
rains come and grass grows and the grain 

( 17 ) 



ripens in the fields and rivers run in their 
channels and the sun heats and lights up the 
earth, just that long will the normal and 
natural price of a thing be gauged by the 
labor time required to produce it. The rest 
is robbery! 

PROHIBITION AND ITS MEANING. 

INCE whiskey, wine and beer have 
never been classed as poisons, the mod- 
erate use of which has been a benefit to 
some, even many, there is no more reason 
for outlawing them, than there is for out- 
lawing butter, cheese, ham or eggs, any one 
of which may, and often do, make some 
sick! Remove the adulterations from these 
drinks, and there will be no harm come from 
a moderate use of them, by those who have 
any desire to use them. Men can abuse, and 
do abuse, any and everything, and thousands 
are sick from over-eating. Prohibition by 
force, is unlawful, unnatural, and is a direct 
violation of personal freedom. What is it 
our business if a man drinks wine and hurts 
no one, while we drink black coffee? What 
does it concern you, if your neighbor chews 
tobacco, while you chew gum? Is it the 
difference in the names of these two things, 
that urges you to combat the one, while you 
make a free use of the other, even to the 
point where you offend by the constant 
wagging of your jaws? If it is the name 
that offends you, why not call tobacco chew- 
ing gum, and chewing gum tobacco? Surely 
that should make it alright, if names of 
things irritate you! You really are finding 
fault with God for placing these things here, 
in the grain in the field and the fruit on the 
tree, for we can abuse all things, and some 
receive help through a moderate use of 
these things. The abuse is outside the 
question entirely. 

But this can be greatly modified, in the 
case of strong drink, by doing away with the 

( 18 ) 



saloons and retail methods. Those who be- 
come quarrelsome or in any manner abuse 
this privilege, are to be denied the privilege 
and placed on probation for a time, and until 
they can show good reason why they should 
no longer be denied this privilege. This 
will be the one sure safety valve, and it 
must be made free use of, where there is 
quarreling or unseemly conduct in the pres- 
ence of others, as a result of drinking. This 
will be the means of forcing many quarrel- 
some men to take a hold of themselves and 
overcome this animal in themselves, and 
much quicker than they ever would only 
for their desire to get what they so much 
crave. 

The writer in nowise recommends the use 
of intoxicating drink for the very young or 
for those who have no craving for strong 
drink. Even in the use of tobacco, men 
must not cultivate offensive habits. Where 
there must be freauent expectorating, as a 
result of the use of tobacco, try as much as 
possible to refrain from the use of it while 
in the immediate presence of others. Even 
gum chewers should try to keep from over- 
working their jaws while in the presence of 
others, for we see many otherwise beautiful 
girls and good-looking young men, act like 
a lot of sheep chewing their cud, with great 
wads of gum in their mouths. We should 
avoid habits that are unseemly, when in the 
immediate presence of others, and which we 
have reason to believe would be noticed by 
them. 

We cannot make men good by denying 
them food and drink we think to be unfit 
for use. Many need the things we condemn 
in the form of food and drink, and it is not 
our business to pass judgment on such mat- 
ters. We cannot remove from us all temp- 
tations. We must learn to control ourselves 
in the midst of temptations, in some form 
or other. With all temptations taken away, 

( 19 ) 



men would degenerate to the level of jelly 
fish. A reasonable and normal degree of 
temptation is good for us. With nothing 
to resist, there could be nothing gained, for 
we are to be overcomers, by having some- 
thing to overcome. 

We could by an act of law, remove all 
visible and accessable temptation from us, 
even to separating the sexes, but this would 
make us weak, and it would leave us so! 

Few have had the experience and fewer 
still have advanced far enough in analytical 
reasoning to trace out resultant effects and 
principles. As little as the world thinks 
about it, tobacco, whiskey, wine and beer 
have been both consolations and spurs, to 
lead and force men onward and upward to 
where we now stand. I shall not attempt 
to explain this in detail, for this would re- 
quire a great deal of time and more space 
than can be given over to it here. Many 
would net have stood the monotonous grind 
of life, save for the consoling effect of 
tobacco and the stimulating effect of alco- 
holic drink in some form. 

Men and women who affect to be offended 
by the personal habits of others, have need 
to cultivate a little charity of heart in them- 
selves. We are not angels, nor are those 
who pay more attention to what other peo- 
ple eat and drink, than they do to their own 
habits of thought! To be uncharitable and 
unforgiving is worse by far than getting 
drunk, although getting drunk is by no 
means here recommended. The Pharisees 
found fault with Christ for eating and 
drinking with that they termed publicans. 
But we notice that he did not change his 
habits to suit their peculiar desires, for he 
knew that it was outside their sphere, to 
tell him what he should eat and what he 
should drink! Because some abuse drink, is 
no reason for denying others this inherent 
right, that is theirs by right of birth. The 

( 20 ) 



abuse is quite a different matter, for men 
can abuse and do abuse about all we can 
think of. This requires medicine and treat- 
ment of a different kind. 

Charity in the hearts of the fault-finders, 
would hide from their eyes a multitude of 
evils they see in others, and for the most 
part are seen through envious and unforgiv- 
ing eyes. Seek to heal the wounds, rather 
than to inflict them, and if you find one 
drunk on your doorstep, instead of kicking 
him, take him into your house, put him to 
bed, and carefully and tenderly care for 
him. This will be both good for yourself and 
him, for sympathy must have an object to 
act on, otherwise it will eventually die and 
our hearts turn to stone! With none need- 
ing sympathy, all would lose the power of 
sympathy. The fault is not so much that 
men get drunk, and that they talk and act 
unseemly before others, but the real fault is 
that we are too quick to condemn it, for- 
getting that we too have habits of both 
mind and body, that are perhaps even more 
displeasing in the sight of God! The man 
who does find himself more deeply under 
the influence of strong drink than he had 
intended to get, often has a heart full of 
love for the God over him, and more often 
than the world thinks, this man, while in 
this state, has on his lips a sincere prayer 
that he is pouring out to God for hours and 
hours, extending often into his waking mo- 
ments. We must not be too hasty to con- 
demn. 

These things, and which some would take 
away by an act of Congress, have furnished 
the foundation stones to much of what we 
have in the nature of inventions and improved 
methods, in the field of production. We 
can be quite sure that God would have kept 
things hidden from man, had there been no 
good to be derived from their use. Nothing 
remains here that has not its purpose and 

( 21 ) 



its use. God removes all things that serve 
no purpose at all. He would no more think 
of leaving anything here on this earth or 
allow it anywhere in His Universe, that 
served no good purpose, than you would 
(think of leaving a painful irritant in your 
eye, when it was quite an easy matter for 
you to remove it! 

But you point to the abuse, and you think 
you make a strong argument on this one 
point against the use of these things. This 
one point might be convincing, that your 
contention is sound, save for the fact that 
men can abuse and do abuse the use of 
every article of diet, by over-eating, and 
many die from indigestion, as a direct result 
of over-eating. As much can be said against 
beefsteak and fried potatoes, as can be said 
against the use of whiskey and tobacco; and 
more can be charged to ice cream, pie and 
cake, than can be said against light wines! 
Strong drink does not make men animals; 
it only unchains them in many cases. 

We do not take the thoughts of the mind 
nor the impulses of the heart in by way of 
the mouth, into the stomach. If a man is 
naturally a pig, he will grunt like one when 
under the influence of strong drink; or if 
he is naturally a bull dog, he will bite when 
in the same state. But there is nothing in 
pure whiskey, wine or beer that will make 
a man an animal, who is not already one. 
The quarrelsome man when drunk, will not 
quarrel with a particular friend, if he has 
any such a friend. He will pick on those 
he does not like, for now he has the courage 
to do so. 

It is an easy matter to reform such a man, 
by depriving him of the privilege to drink, 
until he makes up his mind to behave him- 
self! What we eat and drink passes out 
with the draught of the body. But what we 
think remains with us, and this is not taken 
in through the mouth. It is mostly taken 

( 22 ) 



in through the eyes and ears. But we are not 
to pluck out our eyes or plug up our ears, 
because we sometimes see and hear things 
that sometimes have a strong tendency to 
lead us astray. We must learn to resist 
that which we find to be harmful to us. The 
sturdy oak resists the winds and remains 
standing ! 

The prohibitionists themselves are largely 
responsible for much of, even most of, the 
evils that come from the abuse of intoxi- 
cating drinks! The well-lighted saloons, 
with high-priced fixtures, is responsible for 
much of this trouble, and it will be remem- 
bered ithat prohibitionists worked hard to 
get the license raised on strong drink to a 
very high point, and in doing this, the 
smaller places were closed, leaving this rich 
field in the hands of a few men, who did an 
enormous business after, and costly fixtures 
were added from time to time, pool and 
billiard tables and card tables, and so the 
saloons were turned into regular club 
houses, where men found many inducements 
to frequent. 

Close up all the saloons and quit selling 
drinks by the glass, and turn ithe whole 
thing over to the government, as we will 
now do, and sell these fluids in quantities 
only, and be sure that there is no adultera- 
tions put in these drinks, and sell at cost, 
and soon we will see less evil arise from 
drinking than from many of the foods that 
some will continue to eat too much of. 

This world would become a world of 
weaklings were we to remove all tempta- 
tions beyond our reach. But we should noit 
keep the temptation under our nose! There 
is reason to all things, but to place tempta- 
tions before us is not by any means the 
proper thing to do. But this was what the 
saloons were allowed to do, and even en- 
couraged to do by the government itself! 

( 23 ) 



We must become so firmly rooted in our 
determination to be men and women, march- 
ing forward to our God and to His heaven, 
that nothing for long will turn us from this 
purpose! This we all can do, but there 
must be some temptations to meet and over- 
come, for if there are no temptations we 
will never become sturdy oaks, rooted so 
deep in our purpose that nothing can turn 
us from this purpose! Men and women so 
weak in mind and purpose, as to be blind 
to the wonders God has placed before us, 
and to the wonderful truths we all can find, 
if we will but search for these truths, might 
about as well be drunk as sober, so long as 
they keep out of the way of the rest of us; 
for perhaps the snakes they will see from 
too much drinking will scare them into a 
resolution to remain sober and do a little 
thinking, and to have a fixed purpose in 
their minds. 

We cannot legislate men and women into 
heaven, and God is not asking us to attempt 
such a foolish thing. Let us have a little 
good sense, and perhaps others may learn 
something from us. Be an oak, and perhaps 
others may conclude to be oaks too. 

You cannot send men and women to 
heaven through legislative channels. Every 
time this has been attempted in the world, 
it has proved disastrous! Men are not re- 
formed by placing them in straight jackets! 
Handcuffs on the hands, puts revenge in the 
heart! Men are not to be led by a halter, as 
you would lead a horse. And even the 
horse will refuse to drink after you get him 
to the trough, unless he wants to drink. The 
more persistent you are in trying to compel 
men and women to walk in the "narrow 
way," the more determined they will be to 
go the broadway! The real effect of your 
unconstitutional and unlawful acts, is to 
make men worse, and not better. And for 
this, God will bring a curse down on your 

( 24 ) 



heads! This curse is already on the way! 
Look out for its arrival! 

And just now there is a determined effort 
to suppress free speech, and to muzzle the 
press, and to deny men the right of free 
assemblage, all guaranteed by our National 
Constitution, and which is the only real 
safety we have to protect us. Our law- 
makers pour gasoline on the fire, instead of 
water! What next? 

Had men been left free to meet and talk 
matters over, the cooler heads would have 
held the more radical ones down. As it is, 
the safety valves of the whole nation have 
been removed from the boilers, and the 
steam rises higher and higher hour by hour! 
God save us from this insanity of our law- 
making bodies! They will set the world on 
fire by their insane efforts to put out the 
fire they themselves started, and now are 
pouring gasoline on it to try to put it out! 
Fools could not do worse than this! Idiots 
are wise in comparison! 

Is it possible that all the members of Con- 
gress have gone crazy just at the beginning 
of the trouble? If so, then where will they 
be at the end of it? 

All wisdom is bound in the God-Head! 
This wisdom cannot be given to us, only as 
our intelligence can be lifted up to receive 
it! After we receive this wisdom, then it 
no longer is bound in heaven or in the God- 
Head! It has then been loosed in heaven, 
by being loosed on earth! God's wisdom 
cannot be poured out as water out of a 
pitcher! That which we cannot understand, 
is an unknown language to us! Neither the 
spoken nor written word is wisdom to us, 
unless we understand it! Words are mere 
symbols to our understanding. It can be of 
no value to us to read that which we neither 
understand or try to understand! 

You would think it remarkably strange, if 
you saw an electric light globe giving off 

( 25 ) 



light, yet with all connections broken be- 
tween the globe and the dynamo! It would 
be even far more strange, to see this mental 
light in the mind of man, and yet look only 
in man or to man himself for the source! 

The source of the electric light is the 
dynamo. The source of man's light is the 
wisdom and source of all power, the Dyna- 
mic God-Head, and is the One to Whom 
Christ referred to as the Father! 

The source of the light of the earth is the 
sun. We get our mental light from exactly 
this same source, for this is the source of 
the light of the Universe! There are not 
two or a million sources, for there is but 
one God, not two! And we are not in doubt 
as to the source of our light and heat, nor 
need we be in doubt as to the source of our 
mental light, for we know that the Sun is 
our one and only source of light, heat and 
life! Without this light and heat from the 
Sun, we would perish in less time ithan it 
takes to write these words! 

And not even our so-called scientists will 
dispute this plain and self-evident truth! To 
do so, would make these would-be wise men 
the laughing stock of the world, even the 
jeer cf little children! 

And thus God humbles the wise men of 
the world, and reduces their vain boasting to 
ridiculous nonsense! 

And thus are the mighty of earth cast 
down! These men who deal out fish stories, 
will now close up shop and go out of busi- 
ness! God has kept His word — He hid His 
secrets from the wise and gave them to a 
babe, a common laboring man, who knows 
more about how to use a pick and shovel, 
than almost anything else! 

We can draw our light from God, when 
we want light, instead of darkness! If we 
want the truth, and this only, God will give 
it to us, and as freely as we can receive it! 
He will not hold it back, if the truth is 

( 26 ) 



what we seek! One God, one Universe and 
one Sun ito light it! Man needs but one 
heart! Astronomers will have to revise 
their astronomy! 

False claims are dead! The light kills 
them! Darkness cannot live where the 
light shines! God's new light has come to 
earth, and ito remain with men to the end 
of time! I thank Thee, Eternal Father and 
God of the Universe, for this light! False 
beliefs and false claims must move off the 
earth ! 

After long suffering, at last we have 
reached the end of flagrant falsehood, lying 
and deceitfulness! 7 he light will either 
cure them or kill them! 



V1U 



"THE BEAST" IN COURT! 

fft ONGRESS in passing acts that are di- 
rectly at variance with the National 
Constitution, supported by other un- 
constitutional acts, is in the position of the 
liar, who seeks to hide ithe first lie by fol- 
lowing it up with a dozen others, and all 
equally black! 

Seeing that one cannot become the legal 
possessor of stolen property, not to men- 
tion justice, nor rthe one from whom it was 
stolen, his legal and rightful claim to it, it 
thus becomes painfully evident that "the 
beast" cannoit back up his holdings by legal 
claims and justice, even in accord with the 
common rulings of his own courts, and the 
word is quite frequently used in courts, even 
if only to deceive, dispossess him, and he 
cannot, by any manner of argument, claim, 
that we have done him any wrong, in thus 
taking from him his stolen possessions! We 
know that the first man to sell land had to 
steal it in order to sell it, for God expressly 
forbids, in His Will and Testament, £he sale 
of His land! And age does not ripen a 
wrong thing or act into something beautiful 

( 27 ) 



and just. What was wrong to begin with, 
is wrong to end with, no matter if what 
"the beast" now holds and claims as his 
own, was stolen by some thief like himself 
five thousand years ago, and sold to some 
other thief! God remembers the time when 
His land was first sold, and He carefully 
looked on as one man passed it on ito an- 
other and gave him a deed for it! But no 
man can produce a deed, showing that he 
bought the land from God, with His name 
signed to it, for God never violates His 
word, and He declares that His land shall 
not be sold forever! Now then, we have 
seen that if B steals a horse from A and 
sells it to C, that A does not lose his legal 
and just claim to ithe horse! So even when 
we try "the beast" in his own court, and in 
perfect accord with the established rules of 
his own courts, organized to protect him, 
he loses his case! We do not even have to 
ask God to send an angel down from heaven, 
to show us that God's justice forbids selling 
land and using it for individual gain, for 
here in "the beast's" own courts, he loses 
his case! Nor do we have to violate a single 
court procedure, in the trial of "the beast", 
to show that he does not own what he 
claims, for the rules by which we try him, 
are the rules governing every court in the 
land! 

The only trouble with this defiant atti- 
tude of "the beast" and his congress and 
state legislatures that support him, is that 
he has been thinking that the real and 
rightful owner of this land was dead, and 
that He would never rise up and dispute 
the case with the thieves who stole the land, 
nor with the other thieves who now hold it 
and claim it as their own! But the owner 
of the land, and the One Who created it, 
lives, and will live on and on through all 
the endless eons of eternity! He is here 
now in your court, in the person of His true 

( 28 ) 



representatives, and He demands that His 
land be at once returned to His people, and 
that this be used hereafter and for all time, 
for the benefit of all, the least and lasrt, as 
well as the first and the greatest! Men 
make a great mistake, if they think (they 
can go forever, violating every principle of 
justice, for God commands and we must 
obey, that we shall all live up to the light 
we have! We cannot have electric light in- 
telligence, and live and act in the dim light 
of tallow candles! That kind of thing will 
no longer be allowed, for men shall obey 
the dictates of their own conscience! No 
man will dare hereafter to deliberately 
walk over others rough-shod, for since he 
would not have others treat him that way, 
in the name of God and by the right of His 
power and His justice, I declare that this 
shall no longer be done! You members of 
Congress, who worked for and voted for 
laws to suppress free speech, you knew in 
your own hearts that you would not want 
other men to treat you ithat way; that you 
would desire, above all things, to speak out 
and condemn a wrong that was crushing 
your life out! Yet you deliberately pass an 
act, making it a legal crime for men to pro- 
test against the most gigantic wrong in the 
history of the world, namely, the right of 
"the beast" to blockade the channels of in- 
dustry with an unsold surplus of the things 
people need, but cannot buy, and he thus 
sentences them to death in the midsit of 
plenty! 

And since legal law acknowledges the fact 
that ithe rightful owner of the land is law- 
fully entitled to the fruits thereof, tried by 
the rules of his own court, and in perfect 
accord with the acknowledged laws of jus- 
tice, we must here and now declare, and in 
perfect accord with your courts of legal jus- 
tice, that all holdings of "(the beast" are 
illegal and unjust, and that these holdings, 

( 29 ) 



together with the land, be immediately re- 
turned ito the people through the govern- 
ment, to be used equally for the benefit of 
all; that "the beast" and his agents imme- 
diately take their places side by side wifth 
other workers, to share equally with these 
the fruits of labor, and I promise you full 
protection from all harm, and to make your 
work as light for you as possible, making 
due allowance for the soft condition of your 
muscles; that you are not expected to do 
more than your normal strength will allow; 
that you at once announce to the people of 
the nation, that you acknowledge God's 
legal and just ownership to that which you 
now claim as your own, and that you do 
this in good faith! 

Furthermore, that Congress shall without 
delay assemble all its members, and that it 
shall declare every act against the people 
and in violation of the Constitution, null and 
void, and to take effect immediately; that 
men and women are here and now free to 
speak and write ithe candid thoughts in 
their minds, and that justice and truth, in 
accord with the provisions of the Constitu- 
tion, shall hereafter be the rule and guide 
of Congress, and that all shall hereafter 
stand equally before the law in all matters, 
v/ith special privileges to none ! 

Now Gentlemen of the Congress and the 
whole American nation, if the above steps 
be at once taken, and in good faith, the 
great tragedy now threatening, will be 
stayed by the hand of God! Gentlemen of 
the Congress, itears pour down my face and 
blind my eyes, while I write this warning 
to you! There is no hatred in my heart for 
any man, woman or child on the face of the 
earth! God forbid that there should be! 
But injustice cannot be allowed to go fur- 
ther! Fatal steps have been taken, and 
unless these steps be retraced, the awful 
tragedy must come upon us all! 

( 30 ) 



Fail to do as you are bidden, Gentlemen 
of the Congress, and nothing you can pos- 
sibly do, will or can save the world from 
an earthquake that will come very close to 
the destruction of the planet, to say nothing 
of the deaths, insanity and suffering! 

It is no satisfaction to me, Gentlemen, to 
know that this awful destruction is so soon 
to come upon us, if God's will in this matter 
be not obeyed and His commands immedi- 
ately carried out! He has reached the limit 
of His patience with your awful actions and 
crimes against His people, who are now 
helpless in your hands, save for a direct act 
of God Himself! It is too awful in its 
destructive nature for any man to be glad 
to see come! God is holding these destruc- 
tive forces back, that you may be given an 
opportunity to turn from your evil ways; 
and that you return your stolen property, 
and hereafter be willing to live and let live, 
and on equal terms with the rest! 

For God's sake, men, do not allow stolen 
property to stand in your way! You are sure 
to regret your decision, if you do! God 
now waits on your decision! I have pleaded 
with you! I can do no more! For forty 
days and nights, I have been down close to 
the door of death and the grave, hoping that 
you men would not take the unlawful steps 
you have taken! I am nearly worn out, and 
my heart aches and bitterness fills my whole 
being! I pray now that you be ncit de- 
ceived, by thinking this the work of some 
crank! God lives, and He gives freely His 
truths to all who will receive them! But in 
order to receive these truths from God, we 
must be willing to receive them just as He 
gives them, and not as we want them to be! 
For thirty and three years, have I labored 
for God in His vineyard, picking out the 
truth, and rejecting the error, and no man 
can say that I ever piled my load over onto 
the other man's back! I have always been 

( 31 ) 



willing and glad, to take some of the weight 
off the back of the man working side by 
side with me, for in service of this kind, 
there is life, and in more and greater abund- 
ance! The yoke Christ places on us, is 
easy, if we make ourselves willing to 
carry it! 

For the sake of all that you hold dear, for 
the sake of your wives and children and for 
the sake of humanity, men now do as you 
are here asked to do, and all will be well 
with you! 

"A child shall lead them", meaning by 
this one having the qualities of a child. The 
writer of this book has spent many sleep- 
less nights, weeping over the predicament of 
some poor hungry cow or horse, seen along 
the roadside in his travels, or over a dog 
that had been kicked and badly hurt by 
some brute in human form. If you want 
God to reveal His secrets to you, you must 
come before Him as an innocent little child, 
begging Him for wisdom to guide it! You 
cannot draw wisdom from God, if you come 
before Him proud and haughty! 

We have seen that "the beast" has power 
over us, because we have been believing 
that he legally and justly owns what he 
claims! Seeing how that he has neither a 
legal nor just claim to his holdings, he loses 
his power over us in the twinkling of an 
eye! 

And we extend this line of reasoning to 
money, and we find that all the power that 
money has over us is just what it can draw 
from our superstitious belief! Money being 
only a measuring unit, it is as unworthy of 
our love as a yardstick or an iron weight! 
Would you think of getting down on your 
knees and worshipping a yardstick, simply 
because you can measure off three feet of 
cloth with it? Would you think of doing 
this same foolish thing in the case of a 
pound weight? You probably would not, 

( 32 ) 



though your love of money is not one whit 
less foolish! It has no power, only as it can 
overcome your reason and persuades you to 
believe that it has this power! 

Its only function is that of measuring 
commercial values, and seeing now that (the 
greed of "the beast" has reduced the dollar 
to the size of a thirty-cent piece, are you 
going to still allow it to bind you to it 
through the chains of superstitious belief? 
You cannot be so foolish! 

As to the claim that governments are or- 
dained by God, we musrt know where to 
begin and where to quit off, if we are to 
move along lines of reason. A government, 
like an individual, is upheld by God, but 
only so long as it does the will of God! 
When the individual or government forgets 
God and ceases to act in accord with His 
will, this government ceases to be ordained 
by Him, but is then ordained by the devil, 
and to obey the unjust commands of this 
government, is to take your orders from the 
devil, and not from God! 

Your boast that you are a "good Ameri- 
can citizen and will stand up for my govern- 
ment", or in other words, you will turn from 
God and His people, and "worship the 
beast", because we all know that the present 
government was ordained by the devil in 
human form, to give "protection to the 
beast", and to allow helpless mothers and 
their children to starve in the midst of 
plenty! If this is what it means to be a 
good American citizen, it will be well for 
you to get a little closer to Christ and be- 
come a good Christian! 

The Chinaman's wooden god has only the 
power of this Chinaman's superstituon. And 
exactly the same is true in regard to "the 
beast" and his money. They have only the 
power of a superstitious belief on your part, 
for being a dead metal, money has no power, 
no more power than a sheet of paper with 
writing on it. 

(33) 



Following out this line of thought, we see 
that a government that becomes corrupt, 
loses its power, only in so far as it can draw 
power from the people whose superstition 
gives it power, by believing that they must 
obey it. But we don't have to obey the 
voice of injustice, for injustice is not of 
God, and therefore has no power, for all 
power resides in God! 

Then how stupid on the part of soldiers 
to shoot down men who are only asking for 
a small measure of justice, in the form of 
more bread for themselves and families! To 
obey an army officer, giving such murderous 
commands, makes you a criminal with him, 
for he has no power over you, except his 
own individual strength, which one soldier 
can take care of! If his commands are not 
obeyed, he may rave and pull his hair, but 
he will be as helpless to do anything as a 
skunk in a trap! Governments are sacred 
only in so far as they do the will of God! 

This little book will pull the shoulder 
straps from every military officer on earth, 
as soon as it has had time to reach the 
understanding of men and women! The just 
commands of a government, are the com- 
mands oi God Himself, and therefore have 
His power back of them! But unjust and 
unreasonable commands have no power, for 
God does not back up injustice with His 
power! Therefore you are not to obey any 
power on earth, that is not supported by 
justice! 

Now "go forth and grapple with the beast 
and overcome him"! "To cope with devils, 
you must meet them with the tools of 
devils." Your duty is now clear! Move 
quick and be free, for you now know the 
truth! The knowledge sets you free! 

Those not of the devil, will render him 
no service! Justice being the only voice 
that will have any power and that will be 
heeded in future, we will have peace based 

( 34 ) 



on the justice of God, and hence "men will 
know war no more forever"! 

As long as a thing can exist without in the 
least measure threatening God's plan and 
purpose in the human race, it will be al- 
lowed to remain, even when the only good 
in it comes from the evil it does, which is 
turned into good, God may not move to 
cut it off! But the very hour when this 
point is about to be passed, God will that 
hour move to its destruction! No power 
can then save it! 

THE KEY TO LIFE AND DEATH! 

TTf HIS key is the free will of man, to serve 
^H God and receive the gift of eternal life, 
or live a wholly selfish life and receive 
death! This key to life and death, is a free 
gift of God to man, and the right to take 
this key from man, must forever remain 
in the hands of He Who alone has the 
power to give it! 

But as horrifying and unbelievable as it 
may appear to the reader, at this very mo- 
ment, while these lines are being penned, 
"the beast" thinks to extend his power and 
authority to the very highest heaven, and 
take from God Himself, the right to hold 
this key to life and death! 

But I hasten to explain, lest the reader 
turn away in disgust, thinking this could not 
be so! This hour, a measure is held in sus- 
pension in Congress, that makes it a death 
penalty to threaten "the beast and his 
image", and which is the power that re- 
flects his will and purpose, and which power 
makes laws for his special protection! No 
act of man in any age, is or can be as black 
as this crime, now threatening to the de- 
throne the Creator of the Universe! It 
seems too horrible to believe! But follow 
me, and I will show you that it is too true 
to dispute! Were it not that this fact is 

( 35 ) . 



known to millions of American readers, the 
writer of this little book would not dare to 
declare it a fact! 

God, in His wisdom and by the power of 
His unspeakable love, saw that man must 
be left free ito serve or not to serve Him, 
for He does not want men to be slaves to 
His will! If we worship God at all, it must 
be our free will and choice to do so, for God 
will not compel or force us to worship Him, 
though He will send His Spirits to us to 
try to persuade us to turn to Him and live! 
The glorious gift of eternal life He holds 
before us night and day, and down to the 
last hour of conscious life in (the flesh! But 
"the beast" holds in his hands the key to 
physical life and death, and he gives this 
to whom he will! By controlling the means 
by which physical life is maintained, he has 
power over this life, for he can give em- 
ployment to whom he will, and thus a 
chance to live, or he can withhold employ- 
ment from you, and thus sentence you to 
death through starvation! 

Not satisfied with holding the key of 
life and death over the physical man, he 
now reaches up to the highest heaven, and 
he claims it as his natural right, to hold the 
key rto life and death over the soul! To take 
from man his free will, is the sentence of 
eternal death, for no man can reach God, 
except he be left free to choose his course! 

Then do we not see that it is literally 
true, that "the beast and his image", and 
which is the present Congress, are actually 
reaching out to take the power of life and 
death, from God Himself? We do not have 
to strain our faith in the matter, for the 
daily papers tell us that there is such a 
measure now held in suspension in Con- 
gress! 

Thus is God compelled to move quickly 
to destroy "the beast and his image"! Man 
is to be left free to act in his free will, as 

( 36 ) 



long as this does not lead him to violate 
the law of limitation, and which law is that 
your rights end where the other man's 
rights begin! You must keep in your own 
orbit, and as long as you do this, God will 
allow you to go on in your course. He will 
persuade and plead with you, but He will 
not force or compel you! This act of "the 
beast and his image", brings them under the 
law of limitation; they have invaded the 
rights of others, and now seek to take from 
us our birthright! This right is provided 
for in our National Constitution, and God 
is the author of this document! To violate 
this, is no less a crime than to break the 
ten commandments! We are to be free to 
speak our minds on any matter, for with 
freedom of expression made impossible, the 
soul of man ceases to grow, and ultimately 
the second death, or death of the soul, 
comes to it through the natural workings of 
the law, for where growth stops, retrogres- 
sion begins! Where mental growth stops, 
retrogression leads swiftly to atrophy and 
death! 

We see now what "the beast and his 
image" are in the act of doing! God will 
quickly move His power to destroy "the 
beast and his image", for the limit of His 
great patience has been reached! A noted 
astronomer fixes on December 17th, as the 
day of the great earthquake! The writer 
has not been given the exact date, but he 
knows that the day of God's vengeance is 
very close! This astronomer probably is 
guided by the wisdom of God Himself, 
through His Spirit, though perhaps he does 
not know that he is being guided in this 
manner. God is Himself an astronomer, 
and He knows when the planets will be in 
-the best position to shoot their electric 
power into the body of the earth! He "saw 
the end from the beginning" and hence He 
planned to catch "the beast and his image" 

( 37 ) 






in the act of (this great crime against hu- 
manity! 

One man will chase a thousand on that 
day, for "the beast" is so blinded by his 
greed, that he cannot understand that there 
is any god bigger or brighter than a gold 
dollar! Let "the beast and his image" line 
up their forces on the morning of December 
17th! God will have His spirits there with 
brave men to meet them and defy them to 
do their worst! Come on, you dirty cow- 
ards! Every dog has his day, and your day 
of doom is here! 

Come on, I command you in the name of 
God and all. His holy angels! I defy you 
to your iteeth! You thought there was no 
God! Before the sun goes down on De- 
cember 17, 1919, you will wish in your 
hearts there was none! Come on, you 
devils and you cowards, you traitors to 
God, to humanity and all that is noble and 
true, and all that life is worth living for! 
Line up, get your machine guns in place, 
and God will show you where you stand! I 
pleaded with you to turn and undo what 
you have tried to do, with the avowed in- 
tention of making slaves of men, women 
and children for time and eternity! God is 
back of us! The devil is back of you, but he 
will lead you ito sure destruction, for he has 
only the power of his individual strength! 
God has the power of the universe! Come 
on, you dogs and devils! 

The plea we sometimes hear men and 
women make for their shortcomings, "I am 
what God made me, and am not to blame 
for what I am", is not in the least measure 
true! God does all His work well, and He 
never makes any one do evil or desire to do 
evil! When we do evil, it is because we 
willed to do so, and we have control of our 
own wills! No power in heaven nor on 
earth has the power to make us will to do 
evil, outside of ourselves! The devil may 

( 38 ) 






knock at the heart's door, but you will have 
to open the door of your own free will and 
let him in, if he is ever to get in! You can- 
not lay your evil intentions and evil deeds 
to God, for God is just, and His ways are 
ways of peace and harmony, and not that of 
inharmony! God is powerless to make us 
good, unless we will to be good! But He 
will move with force against evil, when it 
goes so far as to even threaten to dethrone 
Him! These human devils that plot against 
the people in Congress and other legislative 
bodies, do what they do for love of money 
and love of power, and are wholly responsi- 
ble for the evil thing they now seek to do! 
God will almost tear the body of the earth 
to pieces, for this evil threat of Congress is 
the most frightful thing man has ever been 
guilty of in all the history of the world! 
How can a man in his right mind, say that 
the devil led him to do this thing and that, 
when he has full control of his own will, 
and can more easily will to do the right 
thing by others, than he can to do the wrong 
thing? It is far easier to deal justly by 
others, than to be unjust to them, for we are 
rewarded at once for our good intentions, 
and we feel mean and full of evil, when we 
plot against others! When men do evil, 
they do so because they want to do evil! 
The freedom to choose is an open choice, if 
others do not prevent us by use of force! 
We are as free to will to do good or evil as 
we are to eat sour or sweet apples, in a 
basket in front of us! Were this not so, 
then God would not rest until He made it 
so! And this is why He now moves with 
His power to shake down the strongholds 
of these human devils, because they threaten 
to take from men, women and children, all 
freedom of choice! And why do these men 
plot against us? There is but one answer, 
and that is that they fear that a time may 
come when they may have to do honest 

( 39 ) 



work for honest pay, and they do not want 
to live lives of justice! They know that 
they are not doing right, for there is not a 
sane man or woman on the planet, but 
would have the Golden Rule applied by the 
other man, as it affected himself, and there- 
fore he is bound by this desire on (the part 
of others, to do the same by others! These 
human devils in Congress, that plot to make 
us all slaves to their will and to the will of 
"the beast" of capitalism, know what they 
are doing, and they know that they would 
ncit have any other body of men in power, 
do this devilish thing, if they were only 
voters who placed them in power, trusting 
to their honor to protect the fundamental 
law of the land, and therefore deal out equal 
justice to all! And because of this binding 
power of the Golden Rule, and which every 
man desires from ithe other man to himself, 
these men stand condemned by the Great 
God of the Universe, and they cannot make 
any plea for themselves! They must now 
expect the full force of God's vengeance, 
and ithis they will get! My whole frame 
shakes while I write these words, and I 
know that God too shakes on His throne, as 
He looks at this black crime of the men we 
trusted With power over us, but who proved 
to be traitors and Judases! Men, when this 
is over, I will see to it that every one of 
you who are not killed in the battle and by 
the earthquake, is sent to Europe, where 
you may have a few years' time in which to 
think the matter over! No crime equals the 
crime you men are guilty of, and now you 
threaten to take all liberty from us and 
sentence us to the second death! How can 
you open your mouths and make any ex- 
cuse at all for the crime you are guilty of? 
The "reds" and radicals you are chasing 
through the streets, are the work of your 
own hands, by tying the tongues of men so 
they could not speak their honest convic- 

( 40 ) 



tions! With your own hands you start the 
fires, and then you (try to put them out with 
gasoline, in the form of more unconstitu- 
tional acts! 

Your sin is so black that God Himself 
moves uneasy in His place, for my eyes are 
permitted to see Him on His throne, and in 
His place in the Universe! The larger book 
to follow after this, will explain this fully to 
the world, for this little book must go out 
at once, that the people may have their 
understanding open, before the great day 
of God's vengeance arrives! You who mean 
only to do good, need have no fear, for 
God loves all who even try to do His will! 
He makes due allowance for our weakness 
and for our shortcomings, but the crime our 
lawmakers have been guilty of, He can have 
no patience with at all! What we would 
not have another do to us, we are bound by 
this same desire, not to do or try to do, to 
others! Congressmen would not have 
other men enslave them! But they make 
a free use of their wills to enslave the rest 
of us! 

God have mercy on these men, for they 
could not have seen the full blackness of 
this crime! 

Let all on the side of justice, line up, as 
above advised, for we must settle the ques- 
tion of whether we are to live under the 
freedom of our Constitution, or lose it, and 
be slaves for all time to come, for God de- 
clares that if we do not escape by this way 
He has provided for us, that we will be 
eternally lost as a nation! Now is the time 
and only time to act! It is useless to act 
after the time passes, for God is now ready 
to act with His power, to free us from "the 
beast"! But He cannot set us free, unless 
we have the courage to go forth and grapple 
with "the beast", and we know that we can- 
not pray to this "beast", for he would only 
spit in our faces! We must meet him with 

( 41 ) 



his own kind of tools! And since he has 
broken the fundamental law of the land he 
has placed himself outside the pale of its 
protection, and can expect no protection 
from that which he has cast down and 
trampled in the mud! Men, you now know 
your duty! Forward, march, for in God's 
strength we will win our freedom back from 
this "beast and his image"! 

We must keep our hands off of others! 
We tread where angels dare not tread, when 
we lay our hands on the soul of another! 
We may do as we will with ourselves, so 
long as we leave others alone; but God will 
strike us down when we move to kill the 
souls of men, women and children! Not 
one of these must we touch, and it is our 
duty to see that no one else be permitted to 
do so! It is our duty to uphold the law 
of justice, if we are to expect justice! One 
with God, can work wonders! Let us all 
help each other, and stop kicking one the 
other! This is the way of life! 

And thus do we see "the image" take such 
tender care of "the masters of the govern- 
ment of the United States". — Judas. 

WHAT IS THE THING THEY CALL 
SUPERNATURAL? 

There is no such thing in existence! 
There is nothing above, below or outside 
of Nature! The word supernatural was 
coined by some lunatic who thought that 
what he could not explain, must be either 
above or below nature, for this thing we call 
nature was an open book to him! Nothing 
happens by chance; it is all governed by 
law, and this law is God's law, the one and 
only law there is! What we don't know 
about this law, would make a much larger 
book, if written, than what we do know 
about it! The questions men cannot an- 
swer, they call supernatural and dismiss 

( 42 ) 



from (their minds! "The image of the 
beast", is like the sphinx; it virtually says 
to us: "Any man who cannot praise the 
beast of capitalism, and cannot give us a 
good reason for its existence, we will either 
put him to death or send him out of the 
country"! And so we have the famous 
Sphinx brought over from Egypt and set 
up in the City of Washington! But Edipus 
now asks it a question it cannot answer! lit 
must die! 

WORSHIP AND WHAT IT MEANS! 

The word worship means to do the will 
of! "The image and the beast", even now 
make it impossible to worship God, and 
threatens us with death if we refuse to 
"worship the beast"! So we see now, that 
to worship means to do the will of; and to 
worship God is to worship Him in truth, 
by speaking ithe truth, and by condemning 
wrong in high and low places, and to be 
just in all our dealings with our fellowman! 
Worship does not mean to go to church and 
pray, but to do the will of God, by extend- 
ing both service and sympathy to others! 

The churches did the very thing they were 
commanded not to do, while neglecting al- 
most entirely to do the very thing ithey were 
expressly commanded to do! They prayed 
one before the other, when they were com- 
manded to go into their closets or out of 
sight of others and pray in silence and in 
secret to God! They were commanded to 
worship God, by condemning the things 
God Himself condemns, and doing the 
things He commands! One of (these plain 
commands is to open your mouths and con- 
demn evil, to cry out against the things they 
see to be working hardships on others, such 
as robbing widows and orphans, by with- 
holding wages from men and women! Per- 
haps you think (that to pray to God is to 
worship Him! God's spirit points out that the 

( 43 ) 



two words have an entirely different mean- 
ing! We know that Christ did the will of 
His Father, as he has told us, and he com- 
mands us to pray in secret or to go into our 
closets and pray! It is hard to believe that 
God would give one kind of a command 
about the same thing, and Christ come 
along and give us a contrary command cov- 
ering the same thing! That would not be 
reasonable! 

When we want to pray to God, we are to 
go into our closets and pray to Him in 
secret, for this is a personal matter, and is 
for the purpose of asking for strength to do 
His will! Seeing that to "worship" means 
to do the will of, we cannot help seeing just 
where the churches stand in the sight of 
God! Instead of worshipping God, the 
churches turn and "worship the beast"! 
This truth is too plainly evident to be dis- 
puted, for at this very moment, and while 
these lines are being written, I see "the 
beast" sitting in comfortable seats in the 
churches from the Atlantic coast to the Pa- 
cific coast and from Canada to Mexico, a 
highly honored guest and respected member 
of jthe same! Now if the reader has fol- 
lowed closely the line of reasoning, he must 
see that the will of "the beast", and not 
God's will, is the law of the land! Then can 
we wonder that God declares that He will 
spew the churches out of His mouth? 

The direct result of this "worship of the 
beast", will prove to be the near destruc- 
tion of the planet! Millions will go down in 
death, as a result of this worship of "the 
beast", that preparation may be made to 
meet the close approach of a time when all 
flesh would perish, except proper provisions 
be made to save a remnant of the human 
race, and such domestic animals as we want 
to keep here on the planet! This prepara- 
tion will be impossible, if the greed and 
"power of the beast" be not here and now 

( 44 ) 






overcome ! 

nally lost" as a nation, and it may also 
mean that all God's works would go to 
pieces! It looks a little like that! 

This surely is something for the churches 
to feel proud of, that man's greed for gain 
brings us so near destruction, and was en- 
couraged by the churches, for they did not 
condemn this monster in the heart of man! 

To worship God, is to do His will in our 
relation to our fellowman, to men, women 
and children! And we pray to Him for 
individual strength to continue faithful in 
this service! To go to church and pray to 
Him in public, is not to worship Him, for 
He does not need this service, and it does 
not feed hungry women and children, nor 
is it visiting the sick in prison nor con- 
demning ,the sins of the world! In this 
kind of service "the beast" sits in a front 
pew, and not a word is said against his 
taking toll and starving innocent children 
as a result of this forbidden practice! And 
he goes to church because he knows that 
nothing will be said to hurt either his feel- 
ings or his trade! And because the 
churches courted the favors of "the beast" 
and failed to speak the truth, it has made it 
exceedingly difficult and dangerous, to write 
this little book and get it into the hands of 
readers! The writer's very life is endan- 
gered by the undertaking! But this has 
not held me back! The most I am asking 
of God, is to make it posible to plant this 
light in the minds of men and women, even 
if it does cost me my life ! To get this light 
into the world is my main and only* con- 
cern! When this has been done, if this be 
possible, I am ready to meet whatever fate 
may be in store for me, for the light in 
these pages will kill the "power of the 
beast" and set men and women free, and 
this is the ambition of my life! To see this 
accomplished, is worth all that life here or 

( 45 ) 



hereafter is worth to me! God of all power 
and Supreme Ruler of the Universe, make 
it possible for me to finish the little book 
and pass it to the people! I ask no more 
than this! At any possible cost or sacrifice 
on my part, I move forward toward this 
goal! 

And when these eyes are being closed in 
death, if I can have the supreme and un- 
speakable satisfaction of knowing that this 
light has not been smothered, but is spread- 
ing to all parts of the inhabited globe, that 
men, women and children are being set free 
from "the power of the beast", and that 
hypocritical pretense is doomed for all time, 
Great God and Supreme Ruler of the Uni- 
verse, I gladly give my life, but for no less 
a price! For this I freely give it, and ask 
no greater reward! 



The constitutional guarantee of the right 
of free expression, is a life message to man- 
kind! To take this from us, is equivalent to 
the sentence of death to the soul! People 
of the nation, listen to me, and I will tell 
you something! It is too horrifying to have 
to come face to face with, and yet we must 
meet it and know it for just what it is 
worth! Now reader, in order to know the 
value of the truth I must now force upon 
you, go first to a dynamo that is generating 
a current, and see and understand the in- 
disputable fact, that the dynamo gets back 
only what it gives off! Now break the con- 
tact at any point along the circuit, and you 
will notice that the current all flows back 
into the dynamo, and all is black! Now 
each of us is just like that; we are governed 
by precisely the same law as is the dynamo; 
we get back in love and sympathy only what 
we give off in love and sympathy! To break 
(the connections between the earth and the 
sun, or between any planet and this central 
body, would instantly throw the universe 

( 46 ) 



into eternal darkness and death! You think 
this is too horrible to be true! I would to 
God that there could be found some way 
around it, but there is no way! The planets 
are all on the same circuits; a complete 
break at any point, would throw the Uni- 
verse into blackness and death! Hence we 
are urged from Genesis to Revelation, to be 
kind to one another, for to be selfish is to 
turn the current back into ourselves, as in 
the case of the dynamo, and we begin to 
move toward death, and in doing this, we 
endanger the very existence of God Him- 
self, and all His Angels and all there is in 
the whole Universe! God is the Universal 
dynamo; He is the great heart of all Na- 
ture, and like the heart in man, the whole 
electric flow throughout the Universe, must 
pass through Him, as the blood must pass 
through our hearts! This is a fearful truth 
to have to come face to face with, but the 
sooner we know this and put our lights into 
good use, jthe better for all! 

I am writing this little book and taking 
the risk of being sentenced to death by "the 
image of the beast", for I am made to see 
£hat I might better die here and now, than 
for all to perish later on! Each one of us is 
placed on a planetary circuit, and hence if 
one of the least of us perish, we all perish! 
Many do perish, but this is provided against, 
by the fact that the ego connection, and 
which is typified by the carbon points in the 
electric lamp, which connects the individual 
with the Dynamic God-Head, still remains 
within the atmosphere of the planet, and as 
well as can be made out, the soul still 
clothes it, but with the individual's memory 
and personality obliterated! But if the soul 
substance still clothes the ego, then God 
has not been wholly defeated in such indi- 
vidual, for there can be rebirth or borning 
back into the flesh, and a new start made, 
in which the new individual may have a 

( 47 ) 



more favorable chance to reach a state of 
perfection and be saved at last! Bmt no 
unselfish soul can perish, unless we all 
perish through the failure of some soul to 
unfold, and render God powerless, and all 
would be eternally lost! This is the mean- 
ing of the words warning us to make our 
escape from "the power of the beast" of 
greed, and of our failure to escape, we are 
eternally lost! And not we alone, but God 
and all His Angels, must perish with us! Is 
this not a fine thing to face, and know that 
our Congress and organized capital, now 
threaten to dethrone the God of the Uni- 
verse, and thus destroy themselves and the 
rest of us? 

You can easily understand this, if you 
will go and make a close study of the dy- 
namo and the law governing its action! To 
cut one single wire on the circuit, is to turn 
the whole current back into the dynamo, 
and then there is no more light nor power! 
We must draw the wisdom and light of God 
from Him, for He cannot by any act of His 
will give it to us! And He freely and gladly 
gives it, for the more He gives off, the more 
He receives back! Could there be anything 
simpler and plainer? To understand the 
law governing the dyanmo and how the 
lamps receive their light from it, and how 
the current completes a circuit and is 
turned back into the dynamo, is to under- 
stand just how we draw our wisdom and 
our mental light from the God-Head or 
Father, and it is how the earth gets its cur- 
rent from the sun! To be worthy to get 
this wisdom from God, is simply to obey the 
same law that you must obey to light up the 
lamps on the streets! The writer is not a 
holy angel, nor is he a holy devil either, for 
I have merely the common honesty to be 
willing to allow the other fellow the same 
rights and privileges that I claim for my- 
self! I am just a simple-minded man, doing 

( 48 ) 



ordinary work, and I try to be as kind as I 
can to others! This is life! Any other 
course is death ! Therefore it is more 
blessed to give than to receive! These Bible 
messages to man, are full of deep meaning! 
But I go to the open book of Nature, in 
order to find the meaning of some of the 
passages in the Bible! Some of these are 
sealed, but in the sense that we are not wise 
enough to interpret them. But they are 
sealed in no other sense, for God does not 
want to hide anything from us, nor with- 
hold from us any good thing! By being 
selfish, we kill our own souls, and we kill 
the souls of others! The more we can give 
or do for others, the more we get back in 
the form of life and happiness! My Eternal 
Father, God and Creator, pass this little 
book out to the people, lest we all perish! 
Let Thy holy Angels carry it through the 
air to the readers, should the mail channels 
be closed to me! Great God, help me 
quickly to get it in the hands of the people, 
that we may not be eternally lost! 

God's will was that the churches warn 
against "the beast" and his threefold method 
of taking increase! It is the will of "the 
beast and his image" that you shall say 
nothing against ithem! Therefore seeing 
that you acted in accord with the will of 
"the beast and his image", you "worshipped 
the beast", and not God! And to show his 
gratitude, "the beast" became a respectable 
and respected member of the same ! 

Step by step, little by little, I have en- 
deavored to lay the truth before the reader, 
and not as I would have it or from any per- 
sonal motives, but just as it comes from God 
Himself; and now I wish to make entirely 
clear God's reasons for striking this fright- 
ful blow at the sins of man! God is just in 
all things, for were He not just, His works 
would go to pieces! Nothing can stand 
long nor firmly on an unjust foundation! 

( 49 ) 



Whatever action God takes, is one of neces- 
sity, and not by the use of arbitrary power, 
for He knows no arbitrary will, and He 
makes no move along arbitrary lines! This 
is not in accord with church ideas, which 
leads men and women to believe that God 
can save them under any and all conditions, 
if He wills it or arbitrarily wants to! God 
has no will to act outside, above or below 
His fixed law! To expect God to save us, 
when we know in our hearts that we are 
going contrary to His law, is to expect that 
which is absolutely impossible! If we are 
to be saved at all, we must come to God 
through Christ, for God cannot come to us! 
Christ was God's will in man, for what 
Christ set before us in the form of a living 
example of how men should live and con- 
duct themselves, one to the other, is in 
accord with a fixed law, and this must be 
obeyed, if we are to receive the gift of eter- 
nal life! There is no other way, and no 
sane man can ask for an easier way! It is a 
life-long pleasure and joy, ito do by others 
as we would have them do by us! To shift 
or desire to shift our load over onto the 
other man's shoulders, when we ourselves 
are just as able to carry it, makes us wholly 
unworthy, and it places us outside of the 
law of God's love and protection! God gives 
protection to whom He will, but we must 
bear in mind that He wills only to protect 
those who act in obedience to His fixed law, 
to obey which is to have life and have it 
more abundantly, and God has no will nor 
can He have a will that is not in harmony 
with this fixed law! Christ came to earth 
of his own free will, to show man the way 
to God and eternal life! And He acted in 
his own free will from the beginning of his 
earth journey to the end of it! He willed to 
do only the will of the Father who sent him, 
and we all can will for our wills to be in 
harmony with God's will! Were this not 

( 50 ) 



possible, then God would not ask it of us! 
If placed on an island with only a dog for a 
companion, it would be posible for me to 
know God and obey His will, in my treat- 
ment of this dog! If the dog was hungry, I 
would feed him, for I would expect this 
much of the dog, if our positions were re- 
versed! Nor must I kick the dog, except 
to break him of a vicious habit, for I would 
not want the dog to treat me that way! I 
could in my quiet moments, hold an image 
of this dog before me in mind, and I could 
see myself as the dog, and the dog as my- 
self, and then I could ask myself how I 
should act toward the dog! This you see 
is all in agreement with the law of possi- 
bility, and what one can do by the power of 
imagination, all can do! We only need to 
consider other people's rights in the light 
of our own desires! What we desire of 
others, we must will to do by others! And 
what we would not have others do by us, 
we must not do to others! This road is all 
smooth and easy! I see no mudholes or 
rough places anywhere along its course! 
But I do see peace and harmony, and beau- 
tiful flowers growing on either side of this 
road that Christ pointed out to us, and 
which leads from this earth to the very 
throne of God, and it merges into eternity 
and continues on! If there had been a 
better or easier way, Christ would have 
pointed it out! And when the writer of 
this little book began the work leading up 
to this, he took Christ into his heart, and I 
never suffer Him to leave me, for I know 
there is no other way to God and to eternal 
life! Therefore I try as best I can, to keep 
on this course, by keeping out of the way 
of others, when I cannot help them! Where 
we find it impossible to help, we can at least 
keep out of the way, and allow others to 
render help! The sword Christ brought to 
earth, was the sword of free discussion, in 

( 51 ) 



which men gathered and discussed freely, 
one with the other, all questions that came 
up for discussion, and that were not already 
clearly understood! In this way and by 
this method, men advanced from the chariot 
drawn by horses, to the locomotive, auto- 
mobile and flying machine! And regardless 
of the slight thought men give to the mat- 
ter, Christ is the real inventor of all these 
(things, and the founder of what we call 
civilization, for had He not established the 
sword of free discussion in the world, men 
would have stood still in their tracks, or if 
they moved forward at all, it would have 
been at a snail's pace! And now "the image 
of the beast", in obedience to the voice of 
"the masters of the government of the 
United States", is in the act of taking this 
sword of free discussion from us, and 
threatens to kill us if we make use of it! 
What do you think of the prospect, you in- 
dependent Americans, who have boasted so 
much about your being free born Americans, 
ready to lick all creation, if it got in your 
way? Do you not see this thing "the image 
of the beast" is in the act of putting over on 
you, acting in the will of its master, "the 
beast", and which is "the combined capital- 
ists and manufacturers of the United States, 
the record is written in every intimate page 
of the records of Congress; it is written in 
the history of conferences at the White 
House" — Woodrow Wilson. 

The Universe cannot be maintained by 
arbitrary rule, contrary to what the churches 
have preached and men have believed! God's 
whole course of action, from the beginning 
to the end, must rest on the firm foundation 
of absolute justice! And so closely does 
God keep to this course, doing nothing 
whatever in an arbitrary manner, that He 
will not, by the employment of force, com- 
pel any man, woman or child, to serve Him, 
but will move with great power and ven- 

( 52 ) 



geance, against a body of brutes in human 
form, who take steps to take from us the 
freedom of expression! His plain command 
to us all is that we let our lights shine, and 
that we hide these not under a bushel, and 
He would give us no such commands, did 
He not intend to make the way clear and 
keep it clear, for us to obey this law of life! 
To blockade the channels of free expres- 
sion, is even a greater crime, in God's sight, 
than the act of "rthe beast" in blockading 
the channels of production with an unsold 
surplus, and thus starve men, women and 
children, for this only kills the flesh body, 
and after that "the beast" can do no more! 
But now "the image of the beast", acting 
under orders from its "masters", moves to 
kill the souls of men, women and children! 
This leaves God with no choice! He com- 
mands us [to obey fixed laws, that we may 
receive eternal life; and these fixed laws 
must be complied with, for God Himself 
cannot change these laws, and so when He 
sees "the image of the beast" in the act of 
passing a measure that leads straight to the 
second death or death of the soul for His 
children, by closing their mouths and 
cramping their brains, in an effort to pre- 
vent them from speaking out and warning 
against the unlawful and unconstitutional 
protection "the image" gives "the beast", He 
at once, by the power of His might, blasts 
away this blockade and sets the captives 
free! Look up, men and women, for our 
redemption draweth nigh! Glory to God! 

MUST DEPORT TRAITORS TO CON- 
STITUTION! 

This is the order in which the real traitors 
to our National Constitution will go on the 
boat to be sent out of the country. First in 
order will be the known traitors in the Sen- 
ate, and following these will be (the mem- 
bers of the Lower House or House of Rep- 

( 53 ) 



resentatives, so-called; and following these 
will be the traitors to our National Consti- 
tution gathered in from all the state legisla- 
tive bodies! Last of all will come some of 
the leading executive officers of the country 
who will then take their final and last trip to 
Europe, while it may be ithe first trip for 
some of the traitors, and while this may seem 
to be a hard sentence, it is not to compare 
with the deliberate intention of these men 
to crush the life out of men and women, and 
kill their souls! More than a quarter of a 
century ago, the writer was shown that this 
must be done, for if we leave these traitors 
here, they will soon plot against us, for 
fright does not change a man's heart! Only 
the knowledge of what has been lost, and 
with no chance to gain it back again, will 
cause these men ito repent of their unspeak- 
able crime against God and against hu- 
manity, and it is as much for their eternal 
welfare that we send them from our coun- 
try as traitors ito its fundamental law, as it 
is for our benefit! To leave them here 
might easily mean utter destruction for the 
human race a few years later on! The 
greed of "the beast" and the desire of its 
"image" to do its will, would make it abso- 
lutely impossible to make preparations to 
save ourselves and domestic animals later 
on, and which will be fully explained in the 
larger work to follow this! 

Hear me, reader! Pay close attention to 
what immediately follows: You are told 
that God is all powerful and that He is all 
wise! Both declarations are true, but you 
take a wrong meaning out of them! The 
dynamo on a circuit, has all the power mov- 
ing out over the wires and completing the 
circuit and moving back through it, but it 
has no more than this. The Dynamic God- 
Head center of the Universe has all the 
power of the Universe, and He knows all 
about this power and the law governing it! 

( 54 ) 



This power is His power, and it all passes 
through His body and His Dynamic mind, 
as the blood in your veins all flows through 
the heart! But you cannot change the law 
governing your heart action! Neither can 
God do it! God can do all possible things 
within the law and through it, but He is 
powerless to do that which is contrary to 
the law! The churches have blinded men 
and women to the truth, and have made it 
exceedingly difficult to reach their under- 
standing! And this makes it much more 
difficult for God to save us on the great 
day of the earthquake! Men and women 
wise enough to view the matter in the light 
of reason, could be much more easily car- 
ried safely through (that fearful tragedy, 
than is possible in wrong states of mind, and 
which fills them with superstition and blind, 
trusting faith! God is well-nigh helpless 
in the presence of ignorance, even though 
men and women are filled to overflowing 
with blind faith in His power! 

A defective contact would render an elec- 
tric lamp on a circuit either entirely unable 
to give off light, or it might have only the 
power of a tallow candle! The human 
brain and organism is a lamp on a Universal 
circuit, and most of these human lamps have 
only one candle power! Nor is this said 
with the intention of hurting men's feel- 
ings, but ito bring out a fact that we all 
should know! Now imagine, if you can, how 
it will be possible for God to keep the souls 
in the bodies of men and women who are 
unable to fully understand the reason for 
the earthquake, and how impossible it will 
be for God to hold various parts of the 
crust of the earth still, while the rest of it 
is being heaved up like the waves of the 
ocean! He cannot do it! The ithing He 
does do is, He sends His spirits to hold 
such cities as His wisdom shows Him 

( 55 ) 



should be held, and houses where His chil- 
dren live, that He does not want to be 
shaken down, for His spirits have this 
power! 

To those church people who say (there is 
no fear, that God has many ways by which 
He can save us, let me ask these good men 
and women, why it was that Daniel in look- 
ing forward to the very time, was so 
troubled when looking in vision to "this 
time? The answer is that Daniel saw that 
"the beast and its image" were very close 
to overpowering God's angels and his peo- 
ple here in the flesh! That was what 
troubled Daniel, and the writer of this book 
has been close to the grave a great number 
of times, and for fully forty days and 
nights, £here has been little rest for me! 
People, don't allow yourselves to be fool- 
ish! God can do far more than any of us 
dream to be possible, but He cannot change 
His law, no more than He can recreate 
Himself! 

And here at this point I wish ito tell the 
doubting world why so-called scientists ar- 
rived at the conclusion that man's brain de- 
veloped from the brain of a fish! I do this 
for the purpose of impressing on (the mind 
of the reader the fact that power to govern 
or control an organism, must go out from 
a center and return to it, and thus complete 
a circuit! The foetus, at a certain stage of 
its development, looks like a fish! The rea- 
son for this is that (the brain and spinal 
column are the first to form ithe nerves to 
control the different functions and parts of 
the organism passing out through the spinal 
column, and each nerve to its proper place, 
as soon as these functions begin to form. 
In fact, the nerve conveys the power from 
the brain, to carry on the growth. The 
brain is the dynamo of the organism, and 
from this the nerves lead to all parts of the 
body, and growth and control is in this way 

( 56 ) 



made possible! Were there no dynamic 
center to draw from, there would be no 
growth or no human organism! The uni- 
verse is not different from this; the Dyna- 
mic God-Head was formed first, and from 
this center power radiated out to all parts 
of the Universe and returned on unbroken 
circuits! The human brain is the quicken- 
ing power here on earth, and we must make 
a free use of the seventh or imaginative 
sense, in order to draw from the God-Head 
the wisdom locked up or bound in His 
head! We cannot do this by merely pray- 
ing to Him to give us wisdom, but we must 
make a free use of our imagination, and we 
must know mental values, before we can 
receive wisdom from God! He cannot pour 
it into our minds, any more than you can 
make a horse drink that does not want to 
drink! We must desire wisdom, and be 
wise enough to know it when we see it! 
This wisdom comes to us in little hints, 
which most people pay no attention to, and 
so they do not follow up the hint, and so 
lose it altogether! The truth is not found 
on the surface of things; we must look 
down to the foundation and into the heart 
of things, if we are to find the truth! And 
when we are wise enough to know (the 
truth, God will reveal more if it to us! But 
we must keep right after it, if we are to 
get much of it. Nothing above our under- 
standing, can be given to us! In reading a 
book, if you get a strong suggestion or 
catch a glimpse of a truth not seen before, 
you should close the book and develop the 
thought. Go out for a walk, or else take a 
pencil and write down your impressions, for 
if you do not do this, you are not likely to 
go very far! We must retain a vivid im- 
pression of what we have, if we are to piece 
our thoughts together and make anything 
of value out of them! 

Wisdom and knowledge come by faith, 

( 57 ) 



and not by merely looking at the surface of 
things! And this faith is the belief that 
there is a cause back of every effect, and 
you look for the cause! A horse can see the 
effect or the surface of things! We must 
be wiser ithan a horse, and look for the 
cause! God, through the action of His law, 
makes our brain and organism, and He 
leaves the Brain a blank for us to write on! 
He cannot do our thinking for us! We 
must do this for ourselves! 

WHAT MEANS THIS JUDGMENT 
DAY? 

Reader, we have already waded through 
some pretty deep water, and now we come 
to the deepest stream of all; we may all 
drown before we get across, but there is 
nothing else to do but to plunge in and 
take our chances on being able to reach the 
other bank. When men had but the under- 
standing of children, they were talked to 
in the language of children, and that was the 
only thing that could be done. To have 
said nothing at all, would have been to leave 
the world wholly in darkness, and without 
a ray of hope in the human heart! And we 
must not forget that we are today what the 
people in past ages have been! Our founda- 
tion was built on the foundations that have 
been shoved up from past ages! Had there 
been no promise and no hope in the minds 
of those people, there would be nothing bur 
a world full of savages and cannibals now! 
And since it was the common belief and 
understanding of the people in the age 
when this Scripture was written, that all 
there is to a man is what we see with our 
physical eyes, and seeing this go down to 
the grave in death, if they could not have 
the promise that this would come back 
again, why then they were left with no hope, 
and with no hope in the human mind, can- 
nibalism would be ;the natural order of 

( 58 ) 



things. But what these ignorant men and 
women wish to know is, if those whom we 
have known and loved, are thus removed 
from us in death, will we ever see them 
again? The promise is, yes, the grave^ 
will give up their dead; these same people 
will come back and you will know them 
again, as you knew them before they died! 
That is enough; if the opening of the graves 
is only figurative language, used to convey 
a literal truth, then it matters little that we 
had to talk to children in language they 
could undersand. On the day of the great 
battle, just ahead of us, the spirits of wicked 
men, and known as earth-bound spirits, will 
actually appear on the battlefield, and they 
will fight with the army of "the beast and 
its image", and against the Holy Angels of 
God and His people here in the flesh! And 
since the earth always has contained more 
wicked men and women, than good ones, 
God's people would break down and lose 
all hope, only for the power of the spirits 
that hold them up! And here another great 
mystery is to be seen by all! Heaven and 
earth will come together, and the heavens 
will roll together like a scroll! The earth's 
atmosphere, when viewed as separate or 
distinct stratas, is spoken of as heavens; for 
the outer strata are really heavenly or pu- 
rified and free from the dross of matter, and 
hence are heavenly or pure. The planet 
known to us as the the moon, will be 
brought down to the surface of the earth, by 
a direct act of the God-Head, and as it 
breaks through the outer stratas of the 
earth's atmosphere, these will break away 
and roll up in globes! God's spirits will 
swarm out of this heavenly planet and join 
millions of His spirits already within the 
atmosphere of the earth, and His people 
here in the flesh, and all will go forth to 
fight to a finish, the greatest battle' ever 
fought or that ever will be fought again! 

( 59 ) 



The writer does not know whether we will 
win, or whether the "army of the beast and 
his image" will win! If they win, then all 
will be lost, either right then and there, or 
a few years ahead of us, for unless the way 
be cleared now for that time that is not so 
very far off, no flesh will be left on the 
planet! But when we find doubt filling 
men's minds on the outside of the churches, 
and blind faith the guiding star of those in 
the church, we face something that does 
not look like a picnic! With faith and hope 
filling men's minds, God could lead us 
through this on an easy grade, and were it 
not for the greed and blindness of "the beast 
and its image", God could turn aside the 
electric force that will set off the gases that 
will come near destroying the planet! But 
He cannot prevent the other thing, and 
which will destroy all flesh, unless we are 
free to provide against it! On Mount Ar- 
arat will be found the Ark, and this bears 
witness to the fact that there was a flood, 
and the great oceans are here too, to bear 
witness to that great addition of water on 
the surface of the earth! The mountain 
ranges were mere hills before the flood, but 
some of these mountains now extend their 
tops to from three to five miles or more, 
up into the atmosphere! Men doubted the 
words of God, but listened eagerly to the 
foolish claims of so-called scientists, whose 
only wisdom consisted in a grammatical use 
of words, but which meant nothing after 
they had been uttered! But the world be- 
lieved these men who deceived themselves 
and others, and today we face a condition 
far worse than death itself! From the be- 
lief of those who think God can do any- 
thing, even without law and contrary to His 
fixed purpose and plan, and those who 
preach the doctrine of chance, we find our- 
selves in a world of foolish children, one as 
foolish as the other! 

( 60 ) 



God made His astronomical calculation 
about 13,000 years ago, and He knew the 
exact day when the planets would be in a 
position that would quicken and strengthen 
the electric current that would expend its 
force on the body of the earth, and know- 
ing as He does, that the crust of the earth is 
honey-combed with gas chambers, left in it 
owing to the intense heat and action at the 
time it was formed, and that these gases 
become superheated from time to time, and 
result in explosions, which cause what we 
call earthquakes, He looked forward to this 
time, and knowing that these gas chambers 
are always filling up with gases, it is an easy 
matter to know what will happen when this 
lighted match is thrown into these powder 
magazines! We can have little doubt about 
it, for there is no room for doubt! The 
writer was shown the San Francisco earth- 
quake, nineteen and one-half years before 
it took place, and nineteen and a half days 
after it took place, he was shown that its 
occurrence is foretold in the Bible! It reads 
something like this: Two shall be sleeping 
in a bed, one shall be taken and the other 
left. Oakland, just across the bay from San 
Francisco, was not shaken down, as we all 
know; God's spirits bound it so that it could 
not be shaken down. This is done by bind- 
ing the different parts of a building, one to 
the other, as the magnet holds the nail, and 
even the foundations are in this manner 
bound to the earth! Now while that earth- 
quake was foreseen to take place at an 
early hour in the morning, while people 
were still in their beds, we find that this 
one will take place along in the day, and 
when the mills of industry will be grinding 
away, and farmers out plowing in their 
fields. New York City will be lifted off the 
map, while Brooklyn will be saved by the 
power of God's spirits; and St. Louis will 
be destroyed, while Kansas City will be 

( 61 ) 



left standing. But you ask, why does God 
not save Wall Street? Is there not lots of 
money there, and men making large for- 
tunes? Yes, there we find "the beast and 
his image" is in the City of Washington, 
and God must allow both to take their 
chances under the power of His law, for He 
sees no reason why He should ask His 
spirits to save these wicked cities, that have 
planned ito sentence His children to the 
second death, by closing their mouths and 
locking within them the light He freely 
gives to all who will receive it! No one 
else can see any reason why God should 
give protection to ithese cold-hearted human 
devils! There is something radically wrong 
with a man who would contend that God 
should give protection where robbery has 
been the only purpose in men's minds! 

We have one thing in our favor on ithe 
great day ahead of us; God's spirits have 
the power to pull the souls from the bodies 
of these human devils, and thus leave their 
rotten bodies lying dead at our feet, and if 
we do our part, God knows that we will 
win, but not by an easy means, nor will we 
have a large margin on our side! The 
wicked man will lose his courage, when he 
sees the power of God directed at him, and 
so these dirty skunks will flee in wild con- 
fusion, when the earthquake comes, and the 
spirits will hold us up! We will have a 
magnetic band weaved around each of us, 
and this will protect us from the darts of 
the enemy, and so we can march forward 
with full courage and with the power of 
God with us, and if we do our duty, God 
will set us free on the evening of December 
17, 1919! We will then go about the work 
of disposing of the dead, and there will be 
millions of them. But a cold wave will 
freeze -the bodies, and this will save us from 
an epidemic of disease that would make us 
all sick, should this have taken place in 

( 62 ) 



summer instead of winter! But when God 
swung the planets in their orbits, He 
planned to have this bunching take place 
when it does, and for this one and greatest 
reason. The other reason is that we can 
have these dead bodies disposed of before 
time to put in spring crops, for we must 
raise our crops and prepare our food, Later 
on God will show us a much easier way; we 
are yet too blind and selfish to be given the 
light that will later on be given. We can 
have peace and plenty, when we make up 
our minds that others have equal rights with 
ourselves! I now feel that I have said about 
all that is necessary, but will write more, if 
the Spirit points out the necessity of it! 



Soldier, answer me these questions: Who 
gave you orders to shoot down your broth- 
ers for asking for more bread for them- 
selves and families? "My captain ordered 
me". But tell me, who gave the captain his 
orders?" "He gets his power from the 
President of the United States", you say! 
But from whom did the President get his 
authority? "He gets his authority from the 
will of the people who elected him to the 
office he holds." But when has he ever 
been known to ask the people anything 
about their will on any matter since he has 
been in office? Then why do you obey 
orders to give men bullets instead of bread? 
Did God order you to do this wicked thing? 
No, God cannot rule by arbitrary power. 
Arbitrary power and justice are as opposed 
to each other, as is Christ and Antichrist! 
Justice cannot sit where the arbitrary will 
of man rules! Do you not see the will of 
one man dominate over the will of a whole 
nation? Can you see the truth when it is 
plainly pointed out, and as clearly as the 
law of "the beast and his image" will allow 
it to be pointed out? 

Antichrist is here!

DANIEL'S VISION, AND WHY IT 

ALMOST TOOK HIS SOUL OUT 

OF HIS BODY! LISTEN! 

The reader has been reminded that we 
get our light and heat from the sun, and 
now if he will cast from his mind the false 
claims of men, he will find it easy to be- 
lieve that we get our mental light from the 
same source! No strain at all on our faith 
to believe this! And we have seen that a 
broken wire on a circuit, will instantly 
cause the current to flow back into the 
dynamo! This fact is too well known to 
require any argument to sustain it! Our 
next step then is, to remind ourselves that 
one Universe needs but one sun to give it 
physical light, and but one God to give it 
wisdom or mental light! Next, we must 
dismiss from our minds the claim that the 
so-called fixed stars are suns, many of them 
larger many times over than our sun, the 
one we get our heat and light from, and 
which fact no man disputes! Then in place 
of this false belief, we must plant in our 
minds and in our hearts, the fact that these 
stars are made bright bv the mental action 
of the inhabitant of each one of them, and 
that we here on this earth are each of us on 
a circuit that is completed through one of 
these fixed stars, so-called! We here at this 
part of the circuit, are the quickening power, 
as the lamp on the circuit is the quickening 
power, and which results in light! We are 
all on circuits, as the electric lamp! A 
complete break here at the earth end of this 
universal circuit, would result in the des- 
truction of the Universe! The larger work 
to follow this little book, goes into minute 
details and explains this; but if we be over- 
come on the day of the great battle, that 
book will never come out! The earth will, 
in that case, be entirely destroyed, and 
since there are millions of human devils, 

( 64 ) 



and many times as many more millions on 
the spirit side of life, with the earth des- 
troyed, and no other planets to take these 
rebellious spirits, these would perish, and 
all would perish with them! The endless 
electric coil would begin unwinding from 
the earth end, and the whole current of the 
Universe would flow to the sun center and 
roll up in a huge globe of eternal blackness 
and death! There would be no electrician 
to come from the outside to repair the 
damage and re-establish the connections! 
Electricity moves through unbroken chan- 
nels! A complete break in the circuit 
causes it to recoil and flow back to its 
starting point, where it remains motionless! 
Gravity is a still or motionless electric 
band that covers the whole surface of the 
earth, and it grips it somewhat after the 
fashion of an elastic band around the wrist 
or ankle. It is from this motionless sea 
the dynamo picks up its current and sends 
it out over the wires to light up the streets! 
This current and this force is the same kind 
of a force and is governed by the same law, 
as the current that lights up the Universe! 
And it passes out from the central dynamo 
through well defined channels, and just 
as it does over wires from the metal 
dynamo! An electrode dropped down the 
throat of a man into the stomach, with 
proper wire connections, will generate a 
current of sufficient strength to enable two 
men to talk with each other over a tele- 
phone wire at a considerable distance apart! 
There you have it! Can you not piece this 
together and make the right meaning out 
of it? This thing we call electricity is the 
life and force of the Universe, and it is the 
life in us! So if the battle with "the beast 
and his image" goes against us, it means 
that the Dynamic God-Head will be im- 
prisoned in a death-trap and bound there 
helpless for time and eternity, and all of us 

( 65 ) 



will be bound there with Him, "the beast 
and his image" included! 

A heart full of sympathy for some one 
outside of ourselves, enables the current to 
pass freely through our bodies and go on 
its way and complete the circuit! But 
selfishness impedes the flow of this cur- 
rent, and we move toward the second death 
or death of the soul! Do you wonder that 
Daniel was overcome and fell as one dead, 
when he saw this vision? We are to line up 
and fight for our eternal lives and for the 
life of the God over us all, and we must be 
willing to die right there and then, rather 
than yield an inch! And God can, if we do 
our part, see that it is possible for Him to 
save Himself and the rest of us, even "the 
beast and his image" after the thousand 
years are up! Under far more favorable 
conditions, those who die now are born 
back into the flesh, where they are given 
another chance to turn from evil and turn 
to the Great God of love who would not 
that any shall perish, but all turn and live, 
for there is no other law and no other way! 
So you see, men, it is not a matter of wish- 
ing to kill some one or do them an injury, 
but it is a question of overcoming a force 
that greed and blindness sends against us, 
and which if successful, would destroy us 
all, themselves included! We cannot af- 
ford to permit blindness to do this thing, 
even when we look at the matter as it af- 
fects themselves only! 

Suppose that God finds it impossible to 
save the earth from total destruction, and 
that He would willingly take these devil 
spirits to His heavenly planets, do you not 
understand that a devil spirit or one that is 
rebelling against God's will, could not re- 
main on such a planet? Heaven is a pre- 
pared place for prepared souls! Devils 
would not and could not remain on a planet 

( 66 ) 



of that kind, and God has no other earth 
for such rebellious beings! 

A noted astronomer fixes the date for 
this great earthquake as the 17th of Decem- 
ber, or next month, this being the latter 
part of November this is being written. 
And this astronomer declares that he will 
risk his reputation on his prophecy being 
fulfilled. And we find what he says about 
the magnitude of this earthquake in perfect 
agreement with what God says about it in 
His Bible! This is the workings of His 
fixed and natural law! The crust of the 
earth is honey-combed with gas chambers, 
formed during the time when the earth was 
created; and some of these chambers from 
time to time fill with gases and become 
superheated and explode. This results in 
an earthquake! This discharge of electric 
force into the body of the earth on the date 
above, will be so great that it will explode 
all these gas chambers, and the writer was 
shown many years ago, that this will cause 
the crust of the earth to roll up like ocean 
waves, and to extend entirely around the 
planet! Nothing can stand, except what 
God's spirits have bound, as you would 
bind a bit of iron to a magnet! It is not 
hard to see what is coming! Be ready! 
Act! 

The commandments written in the Bible, 
are life messages to mankind, and are in 
nowise arbitrary commands! To obey God's 
commands is nothing more and nothing 
less than to follow the only course that 
leads to eternal life! There is not an arbi- 
trary command in this book of life, and 
God is the real author of it! Men have 
said all manner of things against the Bible, 
and have regarded it as the work of silly 
men! Man gets his wisdom from God, for 
it is not in man to see beyond the surface 
of things, only as God gives him the wis- 
dom to do so, and His spirits are sent to 

C 67 ) 



help men solve difficult problems! The 
writer of this little book would despise 
himself all the rest of his days, if he even 
hinted to men that he is the author of this 
book! I am not much more than a pen or 
pencil, held in the hand of one with the 
wisdom to use it! Therefore, let me im- 
press upon your minds the fact that God 
is the real author of the Constitution of 
the United States, and that it is this docu- 
ment He refers to when He says He has 
provided a means for our escape! Had 
the wisdom of God not provided it, do we 
allow ourselves to sink to the mental level 
of little children, by thinking it the work 
of men, acting in their own will and using 
only their own judgment? Can we not see 
that it is a keynote provision, to enable 
man to be free to go forward toward eternal 
life, deprived of which he must stumble on 
and move toward the second death! Does 
not this stone fit into the plan and purpose, 
and which is dimly reflected from the pages 
of the Bible? Can we not see that man must 
be free to express freely the thoughts that 
come to him, or that he will remain in 
ignorance and superstition? And can we 
not see that the provision against wage 
slavery or involuntary servitude, is much 
higher than the intelligence of man to look 
forward to and make provisions against, 
when the time had come to be freed from 
the power of "the beast"? Who but silly 
men, would think that the writers of our 
National Constitution, had the wisdom to 
look ahead and make this necessary pro- 
vision to meet a crisis, except they be 
guided by the wisdom and power of God? 
But "the beast" discovered this provision 
in this instrument a number of years back, 
and he warned his class and took steps to 
change this provision or to nullify it! And 
he is now ordering "the image" to pass acts 
to prevent men from speaking the things 

( 68 ) 



that are in their minds, and from letting 
their light shine, and "the image" now has 
before it an act to make it a death penalty, 
for men to threaten to remove these usurp- 
ers of power, for no man or body of men 
can pronounce the death penalty on men 
for speaking what they candidly believe, 
for God's plain command is not to kill! 
No man has the right to kill or to threaten 
another man's life, and when he does take 
another man's life, he has thereby forfeited 
his own right to life, except he did the act 
in self defense! But men can talk all they 
want to against the evils of government, 
and they must not be deprived of this God- 
given privilege and duty, for any govern- 
ment will become rotten through and 
through, if men do not come out openly and 
warn against any manner of corruption or 
infringement on the rights of humanity! 
And we all know that the trouble all started 
in the first instance, by vicious legislation 
that forbade men to meet and freely speak 
their minds! "The image of the beast" 
deliberately and wilfully, and with its own 
hands, sets the fires with unconstitutional 
acts, and then it pours gasoline on these 
fires in the form of more suppressive and 
unconstitutional measures! Men, it is our 
duty to both God and man, to defend our 
Constitution at any and all cost! Failure 
to do so, leaves us at the mercy of "the 
beast", and open to the curse of God! We 
must fisrht for the lives and souls of inno- 
cent little children in their cradles, and for 
those yet unborn! Is there any greater 
justification for our quick action? Can all 
not now see what "the image" has done and 
is threatening to do? To not act, is to pro- 
nounce the death sentence upon our own 
heads! It is to leave women and little 
helpless children at the mercy of a greedy 
"beast" that knows no mercy! As American 
citizens, standing upon our God-given Con- 

( 69 ) 



stitutional rights, we must move now, or 
be lost for time and eternity! Must we lay 
down and permit the God-Head and His 
Universe and all His creatures, to be im- 
prisoned in a death-trap for time and 
eternity, simply to gratify a greed that is 
too blind to see the crime it is about to 
commit? Do you realize, men of free 
America, that what we do or fail to do, on 
the 17th day of December, fixes our fate 
for time and eternity? "The beast and his 
image" will see the necessity for our action, 
after it is all over, unless all are lost, and 
even before we became unconscious, all 
would realize the awful doom that awaits 
us, if we fail to battle with this blind power 
that now threatens to kill both soul and 
body of all who are to come hereafter! 

God, I have gone now to the end of my 
power to act; the rest must be left to Thee 
and to Thy spirits, for my lack of time and 
ability, forbids me to go further! Lead 
the nation, I pray Thee, Oh God of Nature, 
Ruler and Sustainer of all, to see and under- 
stand the truths Thou hast caused me and 
led me to write in this little book! And I 
shall pray to Thee in secret both night and 
day, to send Thy Spirits to each reader 
that reads this book, and open it up to their 
understanding, as Thou hast done in my 
own case, for I realize that if the Spirit 
does not illuminate our minds, as the elec- 
tric lamp the pages of the book we read, 
that we cannot read and understand what 
we read! And it is with the knowledge of 
Thy power to do this, that I send the book 
out that the nation may be prepared to go 
forth and battle for life here and hereafter, 
for on this day that Thou hast set to 
deliver us from "the beast and its image", 
is in accord with Thy will and in harmony 
with the workings of Thy law! What more 
can I do? I am an open vessel to receive 
whatever may come! I can only look and 

( 70 ) 



hope! No more can I do! But may my 
poor efforts not fail to accomplish that for 
which Thou hast planned! Let it not be 
said of me, that I failed to do Thy will at 
any time, or that my own will has been 
injected into any paragraph or sentence in 
this book! Forbid that anything has been 
said that Thou didst not want said, or that 
anything has been left unsaid that Thou 
hast desired! Eternal God, Father and 
Creator, we must do Thy will on the 17th 
of next month, or we all must perish! Let 
Thy will be done, and all will be well! 

THE NEW UNDERSTANDING!!! 

Here follows the law and the truth as 
it really is in Nature! Read it carefully 
and receive the new understanding! With 
this new understanding, you will have the 
courage of your convictions, and will stand 
up and face the power that threatens the 
life of all humanity, including the inhabi- 
tants of all the countries on the face of the 
earth! 

How are we to serve God? By getting 
down on our knees before others, and de- 
ceiving ourselves and others? Is this what 
you think God is asking of us? Why do 
men think they can serve God in that 
manner? The answer is that men have 
regarded God in the light of an arbiter, 
who could do one thing today and the op- 
posite thing tomorrow, and it would be 
proper and just, because God did it, re- 
gardless of what effect it might have on us! 
If we serve God at all, it must be a free- 
will service, for He can accept no other 
kind of service! For a selfish man to pray 
to God, unless it be to ask God to remove 
this selfishness from his heart, is only a 
waste of time! We cannot please God by 
praising Him with our mouths! We must 
praise Him in our hearts, or we do not 
praise Him at all! Unless the church 

( 71 ) 



service stirs the heart and causes you to 
desire to go home and be more kind to your 
neighbors or to overcome some form of 
selfishness, then it has not benefitted you, 
and God does not care for lip praise, nor 
for any kind that does not well up from 
the heart! We can only reach God through 
a heart made tender, through having sym- 
pathy for others! To seek to reach God 
by mere words, is to get your wires crossed! 
You will have to take your heart with you, 
if you are to reach Him, for the very plain 
reason, that it is your heart-felt intentions 
and not your words, that He pays the least 
attention to! "As a man thinketh in his 
heart, so is he", has been true from the 
beginning, is true now, and will always be 
true! This makes it clear to us, that if we 
think to do evil, we have already commit- 
ted the deed, insofar as it affects ourselves! 
The difference is that we may save our- 
selves five or ten years in prison, by not 
carrying this desire or intention to the 
point where we might have worked a 
physical or moral injury to another! 

And it is well that we remember the old 
adage, to the effect that it is a poor rule 
that will not work both ways. And as this 
rule is not classed with bad rules, we find 
that it really does work both ways. If we 
have thought to do good in our hearts, we 
have received the sure reward of good in- 
tentions. And it is for our good intentions 
only that we will receive God's approval 
and reward, regardless of the amount or 
size or value of our gift! We might just 
as well keep our gift, if the kindly im- 
pulses of the heart do not go with the gift! 
You may steal half of the earth and give it 
back in the form of cold charity, and it 
will profit you nothing in the sight of God! 
Do you ask the plain foundation reason 
for this? Very well, for with the law re- 
vealed before us, it is easy to understand 

( 72 ) 



it. Now let us say that we are generating 
a current at some power station, that some 
of the lamps on the circuit show brightly 
and give off a good clear light, while many 
other lamps on this same circuit give dim 
lights, and some no lights at all. Now if 
we go to an electrician who understands 
his work, he will tell us that there is some- 
thing wrong with the carbon points, or 
something else that can be easily located 
and repaired. And we find that when the 
two carbon points are brought in actual 
contact, that the current passes through 
these, as over or through an unbroken wire 
connection, but no light results from this. 
Now our mental light is generated by this 
same law, acting in exactly the same man- 
ner, for there is but one general law 
governing the action and movements of 
electricity throughout the Universe. The 
heart is one of the carbon points in man, 
while the brain is the other, and if the 
heart is not touched by our action, there is 
neither God's wisdom nor justice in the act, 
and consequently no response from Him! 
It is merely a mechanical action, with no 
heart-felt feeling, and God cannot be 
reached through mechanical action. Could 
we so reach Him, then we could assign our 
dealings with Him to phonographs and 
telephones! Hence so-called blessings at 
meal times, and praying in the presence of 
others, divides the attention between our 
petition to God, and the conscious effort to 
please others with the words we utter. 
Now in as much as God pays no attention 
at all to our words, but looks only to the 
motive back of the act, we see by this that 
harm and not good may come from praying 
in spoken words in the immediate presence 
of others. People will judge us by our 
prayers, and often these judgments are 
severe ! 

( 73 ) 



The power and life of the Universe is 
spoken of as the Spirit of God, but we call 
it electricity in our day and time. But the 
name we call it by, does not change its 
nature or destroy its power nor change the 
law of its action! God had the name 
changed for wise purposes, and we need 
waste no time here to try to find out the 
reason for this change of the name. One 
plain reason, however, is that men make 
a study of the power and law governing the 
action of electricity, whereas they pay very 
little attention to the same thing when we 
call it by its ancient name spirit! 

At this point I find it difficult to hold the 
printers at their task of printing this little 
book, and had God's spirit not brought me 
my brother from the North, with means to 
pay for the work as it goes forward step 
by step, it would be hard for me to go to 
any printer and ask him to take chances 
by going through to the end with the work! 
And even now, I must rely on the power 
of the spirit to illume the minds of the 
printers, that they may be enabled to see 
and understand that this is the little book 
promised in the Bible. And there must go 
out warning and light to guide, or all will 
be lost! For we are to understand that the 
earthquake that is so near, is not an arbi- 
trary act of God's will, for God is well-nigh 
as helpless in His place in the Universe, as 
is the metal dynamo at the power station; 
He must remain in His place and allow the 
current to pass through His Dynamic Head 
and go on its course from planet to planet 
and return in an unbroken circuit to Him 
and back to its starting point, to be turned 
back and repeat for time and eternity! 
That is, it will do this, unless we are all 
overcome by "the beast and its image" on 
the day of the great battle, in which case 
the earth will be allowed to go to pieces, 
for we may as well perish then, as to 

( 74 ) 



perish 12^4 years hence, as the result of a 
poisonous gas belt that is now fast settling 
to the surface of the earth, in which all 
flesh will perish, if no provision be made 
to save a remnant of the human race, to- 
gether with a few domestic animals we may 
want to keep! This poisonous gas belt was 
discharged into the atmosphere at the time 
the earth was formed, and the great heat 
forced it high up in the atmosphere. It 
settles at a uniform rate, and God knows 
when it is due to reach the surface! The 
words, "except those days be shortened, 
no flesh could live" means that if the greed 
of man be not overcome at this particular 
time, by cutting off twelve and a quarter 
years from the beginning of the Millennium, 
and which is to include all countries on the 
earth, by clearing the way for the prepara- 
tion here in this country which God de- 
clares he would hide from the rest of the 
world up to a certain time, and that the 
ships of Tarshish, and which was the 
ancient^ name of Spain, would be the first 
to bring men and women here, why all 
must perish at that time, for it would be 
almost instant death to breath those deadly 
gases! The calling of the fowls of the air 
to feast upon the dead bodies, merely points 
to the fact that corrupt rulers and men 
both high and low, must perish at that time, 
for only those can be saved who are 
caught up and quickly drawn above that 
poisonous gas belt, to meet the Lord in the 
air, for we will be able to build airships of 
sufficient carrying capacity, to hold us above 
this belt until it has been worked off and 
the oceans have dried up and the mountains 
settled back into place, for the crust of the 
earth is only about one hundred miles in 
thickness, and when the waters of the flood 
settled to the condensing line, the beds of 
the oceans bent down to receive the new 
supply of water, while the mountain ranges 

(75 ) 



rose higher, and thus the reason for or 
meaning of the Scripture where it is de- 
clared that the land rose up out of the 
water. Nothing anywhere points to the 
supernatural, for there is no such thing. 
All things are governed by law, by one law, 
and this is the law of God, and we are told 
that God is Nature! But a God-Head does 
not destroy the fact that God is spirit, any 
more than dipping water out of the ocean 
and confining it in a vessel, destroys the 
fact that it is still water. Man also is 
spirit, but he would make a very poor show- 
ing, if he had no organism and no brain 
to be acted on and through. You never 
have yet seen a power plant without a 
dynamo! It is equally impossible to 
imagine a Universe without a Dynamic God- 
Head for this force to act through! And 
when you take another step, and know that 
the brain of man and lower animals is the 
dynamic power plant from which nerve 
wires lead to all parts of the body, and 
regulate the amount of the current that is 
to go into each function of the body! If 
it were possible for me to get your mind 
freed from the poison that so-called 
scientists have filled you with, then it would 
not be difficult to make you understand the 
truths pointed out in this little book. The 
God-Head cannot change the law governing 
the action of this universal force we call 
electricity, and His relation to the universe 
is about the same as are the dynamic brain 
centers of man to his individual organism! 
To know all about man and the law govern- 
ing the circulation of his blood and the 
manner in which he gets his mental impres- 
sions, would be to know God and all His 
works! It is to this we are striving; it is 
the goal toward which we all move, and 
there can be no vacant seats when we finally 
reach that eternal home of glory, for one 
single one missing, would mean the total 

( 76 ) 



destruction of the universe! Never mind 
what the churches say about the second 
death; men were talked to as foolish chil- 
dren, when they understood no more than 
children! The second death means simply 
that the soul of that individual gets rid of 
a bad memory, and this same soul begins 
under more favorable conditions, and writes 
a record that will be worth preserving! We 
all become as perfect as God Himself, if 
we are not all lost on the 17th of next 
month, and God too will* perish with us, if 
the battle with the army of "the beast" 
overcomes us! Do you wonder that this 
picture that looks so black, overcome 
Daniel when he saw it, and that it has 
nearly killed the writer from start to finish? 
The paper on which a man writes a record 
is pure and clean; it is only the bad record 
that needs to be destroyed, and God does 
not have to destroy the soul substance, in 
order to persuade a man to give up this bad 
record, and write good memories in place 
of it. 

UNIVERSE NOT GOVERNED BY 
ARBITRARY DECISION! 

There could be no such a quality as 
justice, in a Universe ruled and controlled 
by arbitrary decision! We here on earth 
are largely ruled by the arbitrary will of 
man, but in heaven there is no such rule! 
God Himself could not be a just God, had 
He the power to fix or change the terms on 
which we are to be saved! This is wholly 
at variance with church ideas, but the 
churches seem to have been wrong in 
about all of their ideas! We must now 
get this new understanding! Had God 
the power to arbitrarily fix or decide upon 
what terms He would save us, He would 
at the same time have the power to change 
His mind and cast us down, after so de- 
ciding! No sane man would want to dwell 

( 77 ) 



with a God who could make right and 
wrong by an act of the will! The church 
people may retort that God is just and that 
He wills to be just. We are quite sure of 
this, for the very fact that the Universe 
exists as we see it, and that we are alive, 
is proof for this claim, but God could not 
be just if He could decide by a mere act of 
His will, what is just and what is not just! 
Neither God nor man can be just, when 
placed in the position of an arbitrator! His 
will in such a position makes the law, and 
he can change this as often as he changes 
his will, for I am here speaking of man! 
God does not hold such a position over 
man, and He would not if He could, for He 
is just and is more firmly bound by His 
fixed law than we are here on earth! He 
cannot be unjust or unfaithful to this law 
of life, and hold His position in the Uni- 
verse! But neither could the Universe 
exist without Him, no more than we could 
exist without either brain or heart here in 
the flesh! We may be unjust, but God can- 
not be, and continue to hold the power of 
the Universe! He tells us Himself that if 
He should become unjust, that all His 
works would be destroyed! Is not His 
word for it, good enough for you church 
people? 

And this declaration of God, is itself proof 
that He does not arbitrarily fix the terms of 
our salvation! If be d ; d, then He could do 
so and the Universe would still remain as 
He willed it to be. God's will is to be just, 
for the law of justice, love and mercy is as 
much a fixed and unchangeable law, as is 
the law that makes it impossible for elec- 
tricity to move without completing a cir- 
cuit! And you cannot doubt this fact, for 
you can go to some power plant where they 
generate electricity, that is, pick it up from 
the air, and ask the electrician if what is 
here said is not true? The rest of it is too 

( 78 ) 



large a matter to be handled in a work of 
this kind. It is enough to know that elec- 
tricity is the one and only life agent in 
existence; that it is what is called God's 
spirit in the Bible, while the Dynamic God- 
Head is the being Christ calls his Father, 
and tells us that he was with Him before 
the world was, that is before this earth was 
created! Do you want me to try to make 
it plainer for you in a work of this kind, 
when the time is so short, for we must get 
ready to battle with the forces of death, or 
all of us suffer death, even "the beast and 
his image", for they too are like we are, 
only they are a little more blind and a 
little more greedy! But we cannot afford 
to let them draw us all down to death, 
simply because they have permitted them- 
selves to place their faith in gold, instead 
of in God! None of us have been much 
above that common level, and so none of 
us have very much to boast of. But now 
let us save ourselves and the God of the 
Universe, for it has at last come to that! 
We have to choose between eternal life 
and eternal death! Nor can God make it 
different, for if He could do so, He would 
do it! When he declares that if these da- s, 
meaning years, were not cut short, He 
makes no exceptions, for He declares that 
all flesh will perish ! This means the flesh 
of the good and the bad, for if we fail to 
win this country from "the beast and the 
image", there is no possible means for us 
to make provisions against the gas belt 
that is rapidly settling toward the surface 
of the earth! The great trouble is that men 
and women have believed that this all had 
direct reference to Christ, and not to a con- 
dition brought about by the normal and 
natural working of the law, and like the 
deluge, must be provided against! 

Antichrist is here on earth, and he is 
right here in our own country; but I find 

(79) 



that it is not possible for me to point this 
man out to you, who has so many fine 
phrases through the use of which he has 
deceived the whole world! The printers 
refuse to permit the man to be pointed out, 
and what I cannot do, I need not try! It 
is enough for me to tell you that even 
though this man is the Antichrist, he is 
not much worse than most of us would 
have been, had we had his power of ex- 
pression and ability to make men and 
women believe him to be sincere when his 
heart was set on becoming ruler and arbi- 
ter over the whole world, by having the 
military power of all nations back of him! 
Why should I point this man out, for God 
knows that millions of us are not a whit 
better, only we are not quite so wise! 
Antichrist is the very opposite of Christ, 
for Christ came to set men free in a know- 
ledge of the truth and freedom to worship 
or serve God without restraint, while Anti- 
christ means to take this freedom from men, 
by compelling them to obey his will! This 
would make it absolutely impossible to have 
justice in the world, for justice is impos- 
sible where arbitrary power rules. So it is 
but mockery, to speak of justice and democ- 
racy, when we are compelled by military 
force, to do the will of a few men or of one 
man! God cannot claim this power over 
us; we must give Him free-will service, or 
no service at all. We are a thousand times 
worse off than chattel slaves, when we are 
made to obey the unjust commands of 
masters who set themselves up over us! 
This sentences us all to death, and God to 
a death-trap for eternity! These men of 
course are blind as to the facts of what 
they do, but this does not make any lighter 
the death sentence! We simply cannot af- 
ford to allow them to do this awful thing! 
If we love God, we will not spare our lives, 
in an effort to save Him from this un- 

( 80 ) 



speakable doom! For if we suffer physical 
death, and win the battle against "the 
beast", God will remain on His throne, and 
ultimately all will be saved and all will 
share His glory with Him for time and 
eternity! Some think that God should have 
destroyed "the beast and the image", by a 
direct act of His will! God could no more 
do that, than you can cause an electric cur- 
rent to complete a circuit and return to the 
dynamo, over a severed wire, the ends of 
which are several feet apart! As the one 
cannot be done, neither can the other! To 
do that, God would have to set Himself up 
as arbiter over us, and He cannot do this 
and retain His place in the Universe! The 
only thing left for God to do, was to allow 
these men to go on to that point where 
they would, if they were allowed to con- 
tinue on their course, destroy themselves 
and the rest of us, and so at this point we 
find ourselves, and He now can allow His 
fixed law to take its course and tear down 
the cities of "the beast", and thus destroy 
his power, while He can allow His spirits 
or angels to bind the cities that He wishes 
to save, and to give protection to men, 
women and children, that have not threat- 
ened to take from others their right to life 
and liberty! God can do this, and still act 
within the law of mercy and justice! He 
is bound by no law of mercy or justice, to 
save those who planned to make slaves out 
of His people who try to serve Him! And 
thus do we see the love, mercy and justice 
of a God whose wisdom puts us to shame! 
When men plan to take all liberty from 
others, God can allow His power to cut 
them off, but not by turning the force out 
of its fixed channel and directing it directly 
at these men, but by allowing it to strike as 
it must strike in its regular manner and 
with its full force, but He can allow His 

( 81 ) 



spirits to save the innocent ones who can 
be of service here at this time. 

And by virtue of His wisdom, God sees 
that there will be twelve thousand in each 
of the twelve tribes of Israel far enough 
removed from the animal plane, to be 
worthy of continued life here in the flesh, 
at the end of the six thousand years from 
Adam, or in the spring of 1932, and if we 
win the battle against "the beast", we can 
then make preparations to save the 144,000 
we read of in the Book of Revelation. 

My heart bleeds for the man who has 
placed himself in a position to be despised 
by the world! He never can look honest 
men and women in the face, unless he can 
have a change of heart! Then the past bad 
record is all blotted out, God forgives him, 
and we must do so! No man can destroy the 
fact of a bad past! But he can turn to the 
God of absolute justice, receive forgiveness, 
and march forward to a grand and glorious 
future! No man can do more! None should 
do less, and we all have sinned against God 
and His unwavering justice! Turn to God 
and live, brother, and when you do this, 
you are as good as though you never had 
sinned, for since no man can undo a fact, 
he has it within his power to become pure 
gold here and now, and since he is now 
pure gold, it is none of our business that 
he once was base metal! We have all been 
that! You are not the only one to forget 
God! We have all forgotten Him and 
wandered far astray! Turn and live, for it 
is not yet too late. 

The date is December 17, 1919! Let us 
have the courage of our convictions, and 
fight for eternal life on that date! We can 
do no less than this, for we cannot afford 
to leave innocent children to face slavery 
and death of both soul and body, and leave 
to the mercy of a greed that has no mercy, 
poor mothers whose hearts are breaking 

( 82 ) 



for fear of the things they see before us 
all! Let us do our duty to ourselves, to our 
God and to humanity! 

As John the Baptist went before Christ 
and prepared the way for him, so at this 
new crisis in the history of man, a noted 
astronomer has for months past been pre- 
paring the people's minds for the message 
this little book has for the world! Heed 
that man's warning, and then read this little 
book and get the new understanding! 
Without the forewarning of this noted 
astronomer, this book would not receive the 
close attention it must receive, if we are to 
be saved from total destruction! 

As the current from the sun to the earth 
leaves the earth and flows back toward the 
sun through the moon, and on its rounds 
and back to the sun through the planet 
Jupiter, the Angels in this heavenly planet 
cannot come direct to earth against this 
current, the God-Head by a direct act of 
His will, brings our moon down to the 
earth, and it will rest on the earth, and 
the Angels will come out of that planet, 
millions of them, to join the Spirits already 
here, and men who take the side 'of justice 
and fight for life and liberty, and this is the 
meaning of the words — heaven and earth 
coming together, and the other words — and 
the heavens shall roll together like a scroll, 
for different stratas of the earth's atmo- 
sphere are spoken of as heavens, and espe- 
cially the outer stratas, for these are 
highly electrical in their nature; and as it 
is the law of electricity to draw together and 
roll up in the form of a globe when broken 
through or disturbed, when the moon breaks 
through these outer stratas of the earth's 
atmosphere, these roll up into globes and 
remain still and motionless! After the bat- 
tle is over, God looses the tension on the 
electric cable from earth to moon, and 
allows this planet to fly back to its normal 

(83 ) 



position, for the law of positive and negative 
action, holds the two planets at a certain 
distance apart! 

Having the knowledge and living exper- 
ience that God can, through the aid of His 
Spirits, give His clear wisdom through the 
medium of a man, without the coloring of 
the individuality of the man himself, and 
free from the clouded state of the brain, I 
pray to the eternal Father of High Heaven, 
to clear the way for this light, even if it be 
necessary for Thee to prepare the warning 
in this little book and its message to man- 
kind, in Heaven itself and send it to earth, 
as was shown me in a vision could be done, 
for I may find all channels closed to me 
before I will have any chance to get this 
out to a waiting world! When all else fails 
me, Father, I have no one else to turn to 
for help! Turn not a deaf ear to this heart- 
felt prayer, Father and Creator and sus- 
tainer of the Universe, for some message 
from Thee must come before the people 
before it is too late! No more can I do! I 
am but a worm in the dust, and my wisdom 
is as nothing, compared to Thy wisdom! 
No more strength remains in my body, and 
I now look and wait for guidance and 
strength from Thee! 

THE END OF THE TRAIL! 

Laborers were led to believe they were 
receiving an increase in wages, when at 
the very same time wages were being re- 
duced from ten to fifteen per cent, by "the 
beast" raising the amount of his toll in 
the form of higher prices for his products! 
Prices go up, wages are pulled down! 

"The beast" sits on one end of our 
teetering board, with the general public on 
the other end; his inflated prices lift him 
high in the air, while the general public's 
buying power is pulled down to the mud 
and dust of the earth! 

( 84 ) 



And even though we close our eyes to the 
facts here pointed out, the law back of 
effects, forbids or makes impossible further 
progress along this line! We might as well 
try to lift ourselves by our boot-straps, as 
to think of going further along this trail! 
We have at last reached the end of this 
capitalistic trail, and to attempt to go 
further, is nothing less than suicide for the 
whole human race! This is a black picture, 
but we may as well see it and face the 
facts! We cannot get away from the law 
back of effects, for things do not happen by 
chance ! 

Then what are we to do? There is but 
one thing left to be done! We must now 
turn and do it God's way, and in accord 
with His express command! This plain 
command reads: "In the sweat of thy face 
shalt thou eat bread", for in order to live 
we must pay Nature's price, and this price 
is that we must all render useful service for 
equal service, if able to do so! The price of 
a product, or we may say, the cost of a 
product of labor must be no more, and it 
cannot be less, than the labor time required 
to produce it! 

Do I hear some one say that he can do 
more than another man, and must therefore 
receive more wages for his services! Who 
gave you your extra strength? Did you 
make yourself, and are you just what you 
designed yourself to be? What desire is 
that I see in your heart? Why in my own 
heart I find the same desire, and this desire 
is in the heart of every man, woman and 
child on the planet! There is not a single 
exception to this law of life, and there never 
will be! Christ pointed out this law of life 
to the world in the words, "whatsoever you 
would that others should do unto you, do 
you also unto others." No man can say in 
truth, that he does not desire others to be 
kind to him, to render him service when he 

( 85 ) 



finds himself in need of it, and the man or 
woman who violates this law of life, for- 
feits his or her right to further life! God 
will then remove the one who rebells against 
this law of life, for he then becomes a curse 
to himself and to all others! Did you not 
have this desire in your heart, God would 
not ask you to show kindness to others or 
to do anything for others! But all have 
this desire, and none can deny it! 

So finding one end of the Golden Rule in 
the heart of every one born into the flesh 
in order to fulfill the law, we must extend 
the other end of this rule to the hearts of 
those with whom we have any dealings 
at all! 

As to the idea that one man should 
receive more for his services than another, 
because he is stronger and able to do more, 
or is more skilled, let us ask the question: 
Is it a burden to yo 1 ] to carry around your 
extra strength or skill? If so, then God 
will take this away from you, for the law 
of being requires of us the best service we 
can render, and we find that the size of 
each man's stomach is about the same and 
that on an average we all consume about 
the same amount of food, one with the 
other, and that one man's back is not much 
different from that of other men, and that 
we all need about the same amount of 
clothing to keep us warm and comfortable! 
Now if there is anvthing wrong with this 
line of reasoning, the wrong of it will be 
found in the mind of the man who does not 
care a snap about the Golden Rule! But 
from this time on, God will have something 
to say to men and women who violate their 
conscience, and who care nothing for the 
rights of others, for when a man sinks so 
low that he does not have any regard for 
the rights of others, but takes all the ad- 
vantage he can of others, that man is 
treading on dangerous ground, for while 

( 86 ) 



this was permitted in a darker a£e, and up 
to this time, it will not be permitted from 
this on! 

The man who declares that he would not 
have any one help him to do his work, or 
give him any assistance at all and under no 
circumstances, is a liar, and the truth is not 
in him, for no man lives that does not desire 
all to respect his rights, if he has any 
rights! And we all have rights, unless we 
forfeit them by refusing to recognize the 
equal rights of all, black or white, weak or 
strong! 

And when "the image of the beast" 
thinks it can cure anything or make things 
better or safer for its "masters", by de- 
porting men for saying what they must 
think, seeing that "the image" has made 
matters about as bad as they well can be, 
it only fools itself, for these same deported 
"radicals" will spread their "radicalism" in 
other countries, and the fire will come back 
to these shores and set the nation on fire, 
if this continues for any length of time! 
If you put them to death, you will soon 
make murders and cut-throats out of the 
whole nation, and we will all sink to the 
level of cannibalism! We are at this time 
moving down toward that low level at a 
very rapid pace, and if there is not a quick 
right-about face, things will soon be too hot 
in this country, for the best of us to keep 
our heads level on our shoulders! You 
cannot kill the truth nor the power of it, 
by killing the men who give utterance to it! 
You cannot destroy facts, by closing your 
eyes to them! You do not destroy God, 
by denying Him! You do not kill the 
truths pointed out in the Bible, by saying 
that you do not believe it to be the word 
of God! The plain commands in the Bible 
are shown to be founded on firm foundation 
of truth, by the facts as we see them here 

( 87 ) 



and now! To simply dispute with the Bible, 
is merely to butt your brains out against an 
immovable wall, for the plain facts hinted 
at in the Bible, are here right before our 
eyes! Even your airplanes, street cars and 
automobiles, are all pointed out in the Bible, 
for God saw the end from the beginning, 
and God is the real inventor of all these 
good things we see here and now right 
around us, and He gives these things to us 
when He sees that we are wise enough to 
make a proper use of them! All hard work 
will soon be done through the use of power- 
ful machines, the like of which men have 
hardly dreamed of as being possible! But 
these labor saving machines cannot be given 
as long as "the power of the beast and his 
image" dominates over us, for it would 
mean millions of men thrown out of em- 
ployment, and reduced to absolute help- 
lessness! It is the mercy of God, that holds 
these back, that millions may not face 
starvation! When we are civilized enough 
to produce for use, instead of for profit for 
a few hogs, then God will give us these 
great labor savers, and if we can do all the 
work in five or six hours, and in much less 
time later on, why that will not hurt us; 
we can devote our spare time to study and 
mind improvement ! 

This will not hurt us any, unless we are 
savages, and care nothing at all for the 
higher and better things of life! To name 
some of these great labor saving machines, 
is not beyond the knowledge of the writer 
of this little book, but I will go down to 
my grave with this information in my mind, 
rather than give it to a world that is crazy! 
These inventions would make matters worse 
for the common people, and would only 
hasten the time when all would sink to the 
level of cannibals, forced to eat one another, 
in order to satisfy a hunger that knows no 
law! 

( SS ) 



And this thing of imagining that men can 
be converted to Christianity, in the midst 
of a hell that scorches beyond man's power 
to endure, is little less than insanity! First 
remove a man from a burning building, be- 
fore you think to talk to him about his 
soul's salvation, when it is all he can do 
to save his flesh body, with hardly a ray of 
hope left that he will be able to do so much 
longer! First give us Christian conditions 
under which we can live, before you talk 
to us and insult us with your foolish prattle 
about our soul's salvation! If you cannot 
give us a chance to save our flesh bodies, 
and remain here long enough to fulfill God's 
plan and purpose in us here, then go on 
with your foolish prattle, for you only add 
insult to injury, and God declares He will 
spew you out of His mouth! Do you blame 
Him? If you do, I don't! 

"The beast" is in the position of a fool 
riding an ass across a desert; desiring more 
blood in his own veins, he severs a vein in 
the body of the ass and draws all the blood 
out of this ass and into his own body! The 
ass is thus put to death, whereas the fool 
is too over-sized to continue his journey 
afoot! "The beast" kills the people with 
his toll, "the image" holds the people help- 
less by unlawful legislation, and the traitor- 
ous press of the country refuses to warn 
the people, or if these papers say anything, 
it is in the nature of words of approval of 
these unlawful acts, and for this we must 
now close the mouths of these lying sheets 
for time and eternity! 

No man has any moral or lawful right to 
speak, who knowingly upholds injustice! 
God will move to silence the voices of these 
traitors ! 

God is just because He obeys a fixed law 
of justice. No law is just or can be just, 
that does not protect men in their freedom 
to live in perfect obedience to a fixed law. 

( 89 ) 



The Constitution guarantees us protection 
in our birthright of freedom of expression! 
The cowardly press looked on and said 
nothing, while the traitorous "image of the 
beast" passed acts to kill the power of this 
God-given protection to His people! 

THE WILL OF GOD!!! 

This will is as the unchangeable law that 
sustains it! He is not free to have any will 
or desire that is in the least measure con- 
trary to this unchangeable and fixed law! 
We may become unjust, but God cannot! 
Hence we are all safe with Him for eternity, 
if we are not all lost at this time! God's 
will does not make the law; but the law 
does bind His will to it, as one part of the 
dynamo is bound to the rest of it! 

You might just as well get down on your 
knees and pray to the metal dynamo to help 
you by some change your prayer would 
work in it, as to expect your words to have 
the least effect upon the God-Head, unless 
your own words work a change in yourself, 
and thus appeal to God through this 
changed condition you bring about in your 
own heart! God cannot come to us; He 
cannot even think to take a single step in 
our direction, but we must make our hearts 
tender in willing service, and then we move 
toward Him! No unclean thing can reach 
the Dynamic God-Head center, and up to 
the time Christ was on earth, he was the 
only one who had up to that time, harmon- 
ized his will with the will of the Father, 
and which is here called the Dynamic God- 
Head, for God is the Universal Dynamo, the 
difference between Him and the metal 
dynamo being that His Great Heart is full 
of sympathy and His mind is full of wis- 
dom! The metal dynamo is void of con- 
scious feeling, for it has no mental faculties 
to express these through! 

( 90 ) 



Were it not that the streams have all been 
poisoned ahead of me by false teachers, it 
would be much easier to reach the under- 
standing of the people, and thus be more 
sure of winning the battle against the 
"powers of darkness" on the great day so 
close ! But I am not consoled as was Daniel 
of old; no positive assurance comes to me 
that we will be able to win on that day, for 
if the negative forces are strong enough, 
they will make it impossible for the God- 
Head to hold the forces in balance, and if 
this should be the case, we will all be 
eternally lost, and the Universe will go to 
pieces! If "the beast and his image" could 
be led to see in time, what we are facing, 
perhaps they might yield to the will of God, 
and then all would come out well with us 
all, "the beast and his image" included! 
But if "the beast" wins in this case, it is 
the same proposition as the one of taking 
toll; the more he takes the less the people 
can buy, and if he wins now, he loses him- 
self, and God and His Universe and all His 
Holy Angels and Christ with the rest of 
us, all humanity, past, present and to come, 
all will perish! This surely is a bright 
picture, and it was all painted by the greed 
and selfishness of man! 

When we find written in the Bible a 
warning to the effect that we will all be 
"eternally lost" if we fail to make our 
escape by the means God has provided for 
us in our National Constitution, that is ex- 
actly what it means! Therefore those who 
imagine we are saved by the arbitrary will 
of God, imagine that which is as false as 
the devil himself! God knows no arbitrary 
will! If we are to be saved at all, it will 
be through becoming obedient to all the 
law! And this means to give up all our un- 
just and unlawful holdings, and to be kind 
and just in our dealings with our fellow- 
man! You cannot buy God off, for He is 

(91 ) 



not for sale! Neither is Christ! You can- 
not defend the private ownership to the 
means to life, not even if the rich hog be- 
longs to your church! You have got to 
get right in your heart; you must not offend 
the least of these little ones, by starving 
them to death, in order to make a profit on 
other men's labor! And the defenders of 
this robbery are no better than the rob- 
bers themselves! I speak boldly, for none 
of us have much longer to live, if "the 
powers of darkness" win on the day of the 
great battle! We will all perish on that 
day, or all will be saved in time! 

If I should tell you that a metal dynamo 
that loses control over the current it gen- 
erates or draws from this still ocean of 
death that binds us to the surface of the 
earth, and is what we call gravity, that this 
current will immediately recoil and rejoin 
this ocean of deathly stillness, you would 
not doubt my word! But when I tell you 
that this same life and force substance, 
and which is the power and life of the Uni- 
verse, will obey the same law as you ob- 
serve by a study of the dynamo, you do not 
believe me! Did you not know that this 
life agent is governed by the same un- 
changeable law throughout the Universe? 
Did you not observe that the electric light 
and sunlight look just alike? Well, yes, 
most people have noticed it, but the fool 
scientists were too blind to see it! 

And even though we do win the battle 
against "the beast and the image", the 
Dynamic God-Head will be so much grieved 
over what He sees and feels in His Great 
Heart of unspeakable sympathy, that He 
will have to call all His Holy Angels into 
His immediate presence, that He may be 
consoled thereby, that He may be able to 
hold the forces in balance, for He feels the 
full force of all bitterness of hearts and all 
the sorrow of those who will have to perish 

( 92 ) 



on that day, for while God does not regard 
the death of the flesh body of great conse- 
quence, He nevertheless feels the sorrows 
of all and the curses of all ! So even though 
we do win, it will be all He can do to hold 
the forces in balance and keep His works 
from going to pieces! God will feel the 
pains and sorrows of all humanity and all 
His Angels, and the curses of the evil 
spirits, on that awful day! And there is no 
other way! Greed has blocked all channels 
of escape! And that the writer might not 
be left in doubt as to God's actual suffer- 
ings, my whole frame was so filled with 
pain up to the time when these last few 
pages were written, that it seemed impos- 
sible for me to live another hour! There 
is no guess work in the pages of this little 
book! I would that I had been mistaken! 
But God knows that it is all true, and pain- 
fully so! 

Why have men foolishly imagined that 
God created the universe and rules it 
through arbitrary will? How is it possible 
for men to sink so low in the power to 
reason from cause to effect? Nowhere in 
the Bible do we find the least hint that God 
can change the law that governs! 

But to win the battle, we must take with 
us weapons, instead of Bibles, for devils 
are not persuaded only through the use of 
tools of devils! As well pray to a grizzly 
bear, as to ask a greedy pig to give up its 
greed! You know what to do! The truth 
will be turned against itself; the govern- 
ment will be turned against us, instead of 
protecting us! 

A death sentence to the human soul, is a 
death sentence to God Himself! You have 
thought you could treat God's children as 
you arbitrarily willed, and go to God and 
pray to Him, but keep right on showing 
no mercy to men, women and children, and 
it would be just the same to God! What 
( 93 ) 



kind of a human devil must you be, to 
think that God is not painfully conscious 
of the sufferings of little children and the 
sorrows of their mothers, and of all the 
wrongs of mankind? Do you think God is 
the Sphinx, and that His heart is made of 
stone? It looks very much as if this were 
the idea you have of God! Get right, men! 
You have not much time left in which to 
turn and live, and you should be very care- 
ful on which side you stand on this great 
judgment day so close! If you take the 
wrong side and fight for "the beast and the 
image", you will fight against God and His 
Holy Angels! And you church people, you 
will fight against the Christ you have so 
praised with your mouths! Be on the right 
side on this deciding day, for you cannot 
serve two masters! You cannot serve God 
and mammon at the same time! 

THE FIRMAMENT 
There are sixty-four electric stratas or 
firmaments, averaging about five hundred 
miles in thickness each, for the law gov- 
erning is that the atmosphere of a planet 
is eight diameters of the planet itself. The 
first strata or firmament is a still sea of 
electric force, and this is what holds us to 
the body of the planet. And it is from this 
death-like sea of electric force that the 
dynamo picks up its current, for electricity 
moves only in well defined channels, and 
never in a body as the ocean waves over 
the beach sands. And it moves only in 
channels so long as there is no break, for 
the moment there is a break, that instant 
the current recoils and falls back into the 
death sea. The upper firmaments are freed 
from coarse matter, and it is in these firma- 
ments that the planets are polarized, for we 
do not look out in space and see the 
planets; we see only the polarization, and 
this is seen in the quarter in the direction 

( 94 ) 



of the planet back in space, from which the 
polarization is formed. And the distance of 
the star determines which of these stratas 
or firmaments the polarization will be re- 
flected in or from. The waters of the flood 
were in their dry or separated state, or I 
might better say, elemental state, forced 
above the first firmament and up into the 
second. These elements settled toward the 
surface of the earth and at a uniform rate, 
as fast as the elements near the surface of 
the earth were used up in the growth of 
vegetation and in the bodies of all animals, 
for these do not come from nothing. And 
when the waters that were above the firma- 
ment had settled down to the condensing 
line, they fell in the form of rain. We can 
imagine that it was a very heavy rain at 
that. The rest of it is known to those who 
put any faith in the Bible, though the evi- 
dence of the flood is found on all parts of 
the planet. The poisonous gas belt that is 
due to reach the surface of the earth in the 
spring of 1932, was forced up to a much 
greater height, than was the water belt, 
and was it not for the blind teachings of the 
churches, I would not be doubted in what 
I am writing by church people. God can- 
not act contrary to His law, but the 
churches have believed nothing else. 
Hence they prayed to God with their lips, 
but forgot to serve Him in their hearts. 

Now this gas belt cannot be drawn aside 
by the God-Head, but must be allowed to 
settle to the surface of the earth, and to 
breathe those gases means death to both 
lower animals and man, and hence the 
reason for the declaration that all flesh 
would perish if the time be not cut short 
here in the country God has prepared for 
the work of saving to be carried out. But 
in the presence of greed this cannot be 
done, and all the world would be lost in 
1932-J4- God's days are days of a thousand 
(95 ) 



years, hence it took Him six thousand years 
to create the earth and make it a fit place 
for man to dwell on. The larger work to 
follow explains in detail. It may never 
appear! If we lose on the great day of the 
battle against the "powers of darkness", 
God will allow His works to go to pieces, 
for why live twelve years in misery and then 
perish? God will show His Great mercy 
and wisdom to the last! 

The church people, consciously or uncon- 
sciously, prayed to God as though the de- 
sire was to persuade Him to change His 
will toward them, instead of working upon 
their own minds and hearts, in an effort to 
harmonize their will and purpose with His 
will and purpose! It would have been no 
less wise of these people, had they knelt 
down before a metal dynamo and prayed 
to it to change the law by which it gener- 
ated its current, by picking this current up 
from the sea of death! The dynamo must 
be set in a high state of vibratory action, as 
it revolves through this substance, to stir 
it into action and cause it to flow out over 
the wires and complete a circuit! The God- 
Head can no more change His will and 
purpose toward us, than He can change the 
law and Himself! Instead of praying in 
secret and working upon their hearts to 
make them tender and sympathetic, they 
appear to have tried to persuade God to ac- 
cept them for keeping part of the law, but 
to allow them to break the rest of it! No 
good electrician would think to hold an 
argument with the dynamo over the ques- 
tion of its acting under a different law, seek- 
ing to persuade it to generate the current 
by standing still or by running backwards! 
He would, instead, find out where the 
trouble was, and then proceed to make the 
proper adjustments! 

And God the Father is just like that in 
His fixed purpose; you will have to comply 
( 96 ) 



with all the law, if you are ever to come 
into His presence! His will is as unchange- 
able as is the law it sustains and is sus- 
tained by! You can never be right in the 
sight of God, and have a bank account, with 
hunger at your door! You can never be 
right with God until you become kind like 
God! You can never see God until you 
become as pure in heart as God! And no 
pure heart will close its eyes to human and 
animal suffering, that it is easy to relieve! 
The Dynamic God-Head will be as indif- 
ferent to your prayers as is the metal 
dynamo, so long as you do not take a kind 
heart with you and go into your closet and 
pray to Him in secret! You can not wor- 
ship God and "the beast" at the same time! 
To defend "the beast" is to worship "the 
beast". To do the will of "the beast" is 
to worship "the beast" and not God. To 
worship God you must do the will of God! 
Prayer is not worship. It is only a word 
communion with, and is a personal affair. 
If we want to worship, then we must do our 
duty here, for God is not in need of any 
words we can utter, for He looks always 
at the heart! He pays not the least atten- 
tion to your clothes, nor to your general 
appearance, and least of all, He pays no at- 
tention to your words! Your good or evil 
intentions appeal to Him! If your inten- 
tions are good towards others, and your 
heart is kept tender in the service of 
humanity, that is what appeals to God, and 
you need waste no time if this is not your 
purpose, in praying to Him! You will get 
just as good results by praying to the metal 
dynamo, and other people will think just as 
much of you for it, as they now think, for 
we cannot go very far in this life at this 
time with a heart of stone in us, and all 
persons known to us, not be fully conscious 
of it! 

( 97 ) 



But now to the battle! Here we must 
fight for eternal life, and failing, then it is 
eternal death for all, God included! Law is 
law, and it cannot be changed! Let us be 
wise, by meeting its conditions! Up men, 
and to your posts of duty, for we have no 
time to waste! 

It is either eternal life or eternal death 
for the whole human race! Which will it 
be? I can get no reply! My load is heavy! 
My heart is sad! 

Eternal God and Father, Creator and 
Sustainer of The Universe, may we be true 
to our convictions and faithful in our duty! 
May we save the day! 



At (this point, the Spirit of God brings me 
my youngest brother from the North, with 
means to meet the expense of publishing 
this little book! I thank Thee Eternal 
Father, for this knowledge, that I can now 
pay for this work, and pass it to a blind 
world, that it may see, and be free in itruth, 
and in the full knowledge that Thou art a 
living God, the wisdom of Whom no man 
can fathom! The Judgment day is here! 
All dark ways and secret things shall come 
to light! The graves shall give up their 
dead! A free people, and in a world owned 
by its Creator! How great and glorious the 
thought! 

The Angel of God, that He sent to help 
me in the writing, lifted up my understand- 
ing, and as far as this Angel could lifit up 
my understanding, and as far as it was nec- 
essary for me to understand, in order that 
this little book that I wrote might go out 
through ithe mails and come at once before 
the people! And when I had come to the 
end of (that which it was seen to be neces- 
sary for the people to know at this time, and 
to hasten with the work and finish it before 

( 98 ) 



"the beast" and his agents in Congress 
began to open the people's letters and read 
them, so that nothing could be said against 
"the beast" and the unlawful acts of his 
agents, for I saw that in the name of the 
law which they deliberately violated, and 
in the name of our institutions, from which 
they were tearing [the foundations, they 
were in the act of taking from us all liberty! 

I saw that in the name of God and jus- 
tice, and in the name of our law and our 
institutions, these agents of "the beast" were 
setting one against the other, and that men 
had already began to chase one the other 
through the streets, k and to kill one the 
other, that merchants and small business 
men who were fed and supported in their 
business by these men who spoke against 
"the beast", that they were killing them, and 
that they were calling these men who dared 
to speak out and say anything against "the 
beast", names that "the beast" had led the 
people to fear and to despise, so that the 
work of killing men might be looked upon 
as necessary and just, for "the beast" saw 
that if he allowed men to gather together 
and talk against him, that the people might 
come to an understanding, and would over- 
throw him and his rotten government, and 
take back his toll! 

And when I had brought "the beast" into 
court and he had been tried by his own law, 
and which decided the case against him, and 
in accordance with the rules he had alwavs 
acknowledged to be proper and just, the 
Angel which God had sent to help me in 
the work of preparing this little book, and 
which He had promised to send into the 
world, this Angel caused a deep sleep to 
come over me, that I might write no more, 
and my power to write immediately de- 
parted from me and I was rendered help- 
less and could do no more writing, for I 
had to get this little book printed and get 

( 99 ) 



it out through the mails before God allowed 
these men in their blindness to close, for I 
saw that only a few days remained, and God 
was going to destroy "the beast", and set 
His people free! 

lit is finished! I can say no more! You 
know the truth! Obey this, and God will 
deliver you from "the beast"! 

And when I could write no more, I was 
cast down and greatly discouraged, for I 
saw men killing each other in the streets, 
and great fear came upon me! And when 
this sleep left me, I saw an Angel, clothed 
in white raiment and with great glory, and 
having the wisdom of God, and (this Angel 
bade me write these few words and close 
the book!
